So I just read a few horror stories on this forum about guys being hit in the eye with tennis balls and getting detached retinas and all that great stuff... so it's got me thinking about eye protection. I mean I'm guessing that sort of accident is kind of freakish, quite rare...it's one of those topics where you see 10 straight responses with people who have been hit in the eye, so it's a skewed sample obviously and looks worse than it really is. Noone really wears eye protection in tennis, outside of sunglasses which are for a different purpose.
Thoughts? Is it a silly idea to think about wearing some squash glasses "just in case"? Just how common is people being hit in the eye with a ball?
