Last month,i saw a fisherman got cut open his own eyelid by his own lead weight,and his face was full of blood,he thought he was going to loose his eye ball.I think it is a wise choice to wear sunglasses when fishing.

Fisherman safety goggles might be the next "must have" item.

I have a decent pair of glasses... I forget them most of the time and normally only use them on days with glare. I have been lucky so far only hooking myself in the back of the head (stupid weighted flies). Good reminder to always wear them, it seems to always get ya at the wrong times  :-\
