See section safety in article glasses for more detailed information about safety for glasses. Eye protection is protective gear for the eyes, which comes in many types depending upon the threat that is to be reduced. The threats can be particles, light, wind blast, heat, sea spray or some type of ball or puck used in sports.

Goggles are forms of protective eyewear that usually enclose or protect the eye area in order to prevent particulates, infectious fluids, or chemicals from striking the eyes. For example, when swimming, goggles protect the eyes against water. The human eye is sensitive to intense light, because it damages the retina and can even blind the individual.

As such, there are many different types of eye protection against light suited for different applications.
