ABSTRACT:
An eye shield formed of inner and outer layers of soft fabric with a flexible sun blocking material located between the inner and outer sheets of fabric for blocking total sun rays including harmful ultraviolet rays and having a relatively thick layer of soft material located between the inner and outer sheets of fabric to provide body to the mask-like portion and comfort to the wearer. The eye shield also includes a relatively small sight opening formed in each eye member and a semi-opaque lens plate extending across the eye member sight openings for blocking harmful ultraviolet rays. The sight opening may be located below the center of each eye member in order to prevent light rays from impinging directly on the eye of the wearer. In addition, portions of the straps forming the eye shield may be formed of material substantially transparent to ultraviolet tanning light rays such that the skin of the user may tan in those areas thereby avoiding white strap marks. Further, the head straps may include pockets formed in the outer end of each strap with a fine granulated material filling each of the pockets to form a weight for holding each strap gently against the sides of the head of the user when in the prone position.
