Preferences in tactical eyewear for work
I think it’s pretty obvious to people that go shooting with firearms that having eyewear or safety glass is important. Those 22 caliber semi-autos are known for kicking out debris and all it takes is a little bad luck and your in the hospital with an injury. The military found out in WWI that helmets could save lives and now our military has realized that ballistic eyewear, sunglasses or goggles can prevent injury. There are a lot of things we know we can do to protect the human body, but being practical is what it’s all about.
The more gear you throw on you the more you are going to be weighed down, and one thing I have found out quickly is that many optics in tactical eyewear have blind spots for your visibility that I would not take them into combat with me. The Smith Optics Elite Aegis Eye shield is probable your best range eyewear and fighting eyewear because it gives you the most visibility and the most coverage next to goggles. Goggles will still give you limited visibility and the extra weight is not something you will want to have to carry around.
