Abstract
Combat face and eye wounds are responsible for significant morbidity experienced by both UK and US soldiers deploying to Afghanistan.1, 2 The use of ballistic eyewear reduces the incidence of eye injuries when worn but the remaining face remains unprotected. Visors and mandible guards have been suggested as methods of covering this remaining area,2 but are not currently utilised due to a lack of evidence to substantiate their procurement.
