I wear my sunglasses when doing yard work, and a large hat to block the sun from my head. My sun glasses have taken a few hits from debris over a lifetime of 60 years of yard work.
I really wish there was a good option for eye protection from debris. Most goggles will fog up like crazy on my face as I am sweating. They become unusable in short order from fogging up.
My sunglasses are prescription lenses, polarized, with several coatings on them, and supposed to be shatter resistant.
Many years back I was driving my 914, no AC, so roof off, windows down, tons of air blowing and all of a sudden my eye felt like I had a knife in it stuck in the iris. Fortunately for me it was a work day, and my regular ophthalmologist was in his office. I pleaded for an emergency appointment. He pulled a little shaving of steel out. It was tiny on his table, but huge in my eye. I was very happy to pay his bill.
