Combat Eyewear…
Your
Sight,
Your
Choice
The answer depends on the soldier and the mission.
Fortunately, the Army offers plenty of choices, everything
from the trusty old sun, wind and dust goggles (SWDG) to
high-fashion spectacles that look as stylish on Sunset
Boulevard as on the streets of Baghdad. They all offer ballistic
eye protection and some offer laser protection as well. Some
combat eyewear fits right over prescription eyeglasses. Others
are designed just for soldiers who don’t need eyeglasses.

Here’s a sobering
statistic from the
battlefields of
Afghanistan and
Iraq…
16% of
all
coalition
force
casualties
include
eye
injuries.
The fact is,
soldiers in
combat run the
risk of
losing
their sight.
What kind
of eyewear
should
you
use?
Here’s a run-
down of all the
combat eyewear
and replacement
parts authorized
for Army use…
That’s a
powerful
argument for
wearing combat
eyewear during
missions and
training.
