flight goggles
Pilot's eye protection
Flight goggles are protective eyewear worn by pilots, particularly in open-cockpit aircraft, to shield the eyes from wind, debris, and glare.
The classic aviator style with large round lenses and leather frames became iconic in early aviation.
In military and simulation contexts, flight goggles may also refer to head-mounted displays used for training: The pilots practiced maneuvers using night-vision flight goggles.
