enthusiasts need to be extra tough and scratch-resistant, as
well as specially tinted to enhance contrast and clarity of
vision in the outdoors.
Protective eyewear: in the form of sports goggles, made
in many shapes and sizes, is essential for sports such as
baseball, where a hard-hit line drive can permanently
damage an unprotected eye.

especially important because a large percentage of sports-
related eye injuries occur among teens and young children.
Safety glasses and goggles: in some work environments,
such as construction sites, are required by law. But even if
safety glasses aren't mandated, it's still very prudent to wear
them when you work or play in circumstances where your
eyes are exposed to hazards such as dangerous airborne
particles and debris.
