Abstract: An eye shield and head gear assembly with an attachment device which includes a support arm having one end portion that fastens by a first fastening means to the underside of the visor of a head gear and the other end portion that fastens by a second fastening means to the back side of the eye shield to mount the eye shield on the head gear. The support arm pivots at the first fastener to enable the eye shield to be moved between a retracted position under the visor and an extended position to shield the eyes. The second fastening means is movable along the back side of the eye shield in one embodiment or the support arm is length adjustable in a second embodiment so that the eye shield does not extend beyond the front edge of the visor in the retracted position and to allow the head gear to be adjusted to different elevations on the head in the eye shielding position.
