A few weeks ago I commented that I planned to get a full face shield. Well, I got one. Just because we are blind doesn't mean we should neglect to protect our eyes. Eye injuries are quite painful, can land you in the hospital, and cost you bunches of money. Some of us do have a small amount of vision which is all the more precious for being so small. Protective goggles can be physically uncomfortable and hot. They also tend to fog up which is a decided inconvenience to the partially sighted. A face shield has none of these drawbacks. I picked one up for a few dollars at Ace hardware. It has the adjustable around the head and over the head straps like a welder's helmet. I have used it while drilling with a wood bit which tends to make a lot of chips fly. It protected my mouth and nose as well as my eyes and was a lot more comfortable. It showed no tendency to fog up. Sue used it today while running the jig saw and said she liked it better than goggles. We may wind up with his and hers face shields. Oh, and one more thing. When you talk to yourself, it reflects the sound back and you can hear yourself much better. Grin.
