or Eye Pro as its called. Few can argue that our eyes are not worth protecting. We suffer a daily barrage of damaging UV rays which can lead to all sorts of complications. Macular degeneration is where the cells in your retina slough off into the eye causing "floaters," or eventually blurriness and blindness. Cataracts are no fun either, when the proteins in the lens break down or form improperly distorting or even blocking vision. A high carbohydrate diet elevates risk or even causes these and other eye conditions. Still it is to easy to wear some UVA/UVB protection. Working in shops or construction sites, or combat you might want impact resistant lenses to protect your eyes from particles and impact damage. I know of one instance in which a Soldier's eye pro slowed a ricocheting bullet enough that it entered but did not destroy his eye.
