visors

Glare-blocking cap parts

Visors are stiff brims that shade the eyes from sun or glare.

A visor may be attached to a cap or hat, or it can be a standalone headband with a brim but no crown: She wore a visor on the tennis court.

The fold-down panel above a car windshield is also a visor.

On helmets, visors are transparent shields that protect the face while allowing vision.
