face shield
Full facial guard
A face shield is a transparent protective barrier worn over the face, typically a curved plastic panel attached to a headband or helmet.
Unlike masks, face shields cover the entire face without touching it, guarding against splashes, debris, or airborne particles.
Common in medical settings, manufacturing, and laboratory work: Healthcare workers wore face shields during the pandemic.
