Select: goggles; a lab coat or apron; heatproof gloves.

Reason: goggles protect your eyes from splashes and flames, a lab coat/apron protects clothing/skin, and heatproof gloves (or tongs/hot mitts) protect against burns when handling hot glass. Chemical-protective gloves are for corrosive/solvent hazards and are not suitable for handling hot items.
