The pair of glasses is the most comfortable protection because it is very light and allows your eyes to breathe a little.
But it is unsuitable in certain situations. For example, you will not be protected from all debris. During a mission in the desert, you will not be completely protected from sandstorms.
In this situation, it is then preferable to use a protective mask which will be more suitable. However, it also has some drawbacks. During high heat and humid weather, fog can develop on the lenses and limit visibility.
In certain situations, it is then necessary to equip yourself with both and to adapt your equipment according to the situation.
