3、ens, designedfor use by players of field hockey, that minimize or significantly reduce injury to the eye and adnexa due to impact by andpenetration of field hockey balls and field hockey sticks. Contact with the eye of the headform constitutes failure. Protectiveeyewear offers protection only to the
