faceshield
Transparent protective barrier
A faceshield is a transparent protective barrier worn over the face, typically a curved plastic panel attached to a headband or helmet.
Unlike goggles or safety glasses, faceshields cover the entire face from forehead to chin: Healthcare workers wore faceshields during the pandemic.
Common in medical settings, industrial work, and sports like hockey and football.
