Which goggles?

I figured I'd consult here before purchase goggles. I have a 100mW green laser and I want to make sure I don't damage my eyes, so I'm going to buy safety goggles. I never want to spend money where I don't have to and after looking around, I see goggles anywhere from $15 to $300+. I obviously don't need 'sport' or goggles approved for 18 jiggawatt lasers, so what would everyone recommend for VERY acceptable protection against ~100mWs of green?

Thanks,
Kyle

EDIT: I'm looking at these goggles right now. http://www.dragonlasers.com/catalog...reen-Lasers-Protection-190-548nm-p-16242.html

As far as I know dragonlasers sells decent stuff. Lser safety is one of those area's where you have to spend money, you don't want to have your eyes at risk.
I take it you have an IR filtered laser? If not you need different safety goggles or an IR filter.

No... I figured the IR wasn't strong enough since I will not be pointing it near my face... I have plenty of space to add an IR filter, can you recommend one? Haha I appreciate it!
