(Day 9) Eye Protection

Thought I'd quickly mention eye protection.

As I understand it, there's no UV radiation risk with red light, but light of any wavelength can damage vision if it's too bright.

I've gone through several different eyewear solutions. I've settled on Wink-Ease--they have a small footprint, which means they'll maximize light exposure to the skin around the eyes; and are considerably more comfortable than all types of goggles I've tried.

I find I have to use a two per eye in order to block out enough light to not cause headache (with pain being the body's feedback system, I consider this an adequate amount of blocked light).
