““These results demonstrate that air guns can cause severe, yet preventable, eye injury among the pediatric population,” explained Dr. Douglas Fredrick. “To reduce rates of pediatric eye injury, both practitioners and air gun companies should promote and lobby for eye safety mandates among all air gun users. Furthermore, changes in state policy to regulate possession and usage of air guns among minors may be warranted to reduce rates of accidental injury.””
Thumpy Covey's insight:
NOT GOOD NEWS! But it seems most of the reporting on this study from Stanford University puts the cause properly in the hands of PARENTS in supervision, use and eye-pro… Interesting to see former (??)-airsoft business guy John Steele quoted in the Time article, too… Links to the various parts of the story…most will cost you money, but welcome to today’s Journo-dilemma; TIME Magazine online LINK HERE Wall Street Journal ($$) LINK HERE Stanford Medicine SCOPE website online LINK HERE Science Direct.com’s link to the original Paper ($$) from Rachel Lee and Dr. Douglas Fredrick LINK HERE

Airsoft has had some bad news in the past about eye or face injuries due to unsafe eye and face protection. Lets keep Airsoft safe and fun for everyone with proper face and eye protection! This video was made to educate everyone about this topic and about different goggles we sell at Xtreme Airsoft.

So true…you only get one pair, and we’ve seen and reported on the damage even ONE BB can cause….play safe, play AIR SMART like the guys at XTREME AIRSOFT!

E-HOUSE makes some seriously strong points in this op-flop over on the GUN GAMERS site...we didn't think mesh-as-eye-pro was still even 'a thing' but lets just keep the mesh for lower-face protection and get some real deal SAFETY back into your choices. PERSONALLY, I'd leave the field if I saw someone down-range from me wearing this! YOU. SHOULD. TOO!
...AND, DICE Airsoft's take on what's what with eyepro:
