will still be required to wear eye protection underneath

Are your eyes only worth $11?

yan101 February 18th, 2013 10:30

I was thinking of safety glasses underneath.
It was more a alternative to mesh protection for the reste of the face

Spike, it baffles me that players don't value their eye sights. Senior players come here to help them, and they still go off playing without proper eye wear still. I would think it would be common sense that these questions don't get asked.

In paintball ball, it is mandatory, but airsoft, fields don't make it mandatory or enforce proper eye wear. Also in paintball, air tanks are checked for hydro dates, but betcha , if a out of date tank was used in airsoft (polarstar), it would not be checked.

The reason I ask it is available at a store that sell airsoft gear. I obviously am a beginner and trying to make a start-up kit. Before getting stuff that seem ''good bargain'' I try to get opinion from more experience player.
I worked in a optique lab for 4 years and I'm married to a opticien, so know about eyecare. It was not a replacement for gogles, but for the reste of the face
I have'nt play any game yet and there is no ''standart equipment'' I am trying to see what option are available.

Take it easy guys, I'm sure the main purpose wasn't eye protection. It does however seem like it would interfere with you trying to sight your gun and fog up really badly.
I wouldn't feel safe with those without proper full seal goggle/glasses underneath.

Spike February 18th, 2013 12:04

If you wore those with glasses underneath, it seems like it would be a fogging nightmare... 2 panes of plastic/glass + the helmet and visor would keep all the heat and moisture trapped in there.

are you after a look or just something for full face protection?

yan101 February 18th, 2013 12:36

I would like full face protection and be able to wear my glases underneath (no money yet for tactical goggles and can't wear contact lens)

yan101 February 18th, 2013 12:55

what about something like this?

you need certified eye protection man, this junk is gonna get you blinded
normal glasses won't help you if it penetrates

Danke February 18th, 2013 13:04

That's a novelty item too.
