Does anyone use any form of eye protection other than a visor. I'm fed up with fine sawdust in my eyes when sawing in windy conditions( yes, the chain is sharp!) I have tried a few pairs, I'm looking for something that doesn't mist up after about 30 seconds. Any recommendations appreciated.

The new perspex visor for stein/kask helmets is really good, better than the old ones. It clicks into place when you flip it up or down and doesn't steam up (been using it all winter). Accessorize with a scarf/buff over your mouth and nose to complete your "ninja helicopter pilot" look and keep the sawdust out.

After the last eye test my optition said that if i dont want to lose my sight prematurely,ide better start to protect my eyes better,now always wear safety glasses with the visor.

Found the itex ones from clarks the best.

Ive had a set of these for about 6 weeks more or less and there great. The top rubber band is comfy and helps vent the mist build up away from the lens. The arms move in the normal fashion and also up and down so you can get right position for you.

If and when mine current pair go ill be buying some more 👍ImageUploadedByArbtalk1389042502.970359.jpg.e6eafd6e5cbfc4d68f3f113974c3c57e.jpg

I have to wear specs anyway and find if I take them off (when it's very wet for example) I always end up with stuff in my eyes, despite having the visor down. Some form of glasses, prescription or otherwise, is definitely a good idea.

I find ESS ice safety specs pretty good, don't steam up, come with 3 lenses: clear dark and yellow and a retaining strap, which I don't use to be honest. Got them issues in the forces, but you can buy them new for relatively cheap.
