Let’s be candid, if possible... is this a corporate liability, or personal safety preference? (You can plead the fifth)Everyone on our team wears a similar version to a welding hood when testing lighting. They also have a very dark pair of sun glasses on them at all times.
Protective eye wear is critical if you plan to be in your grow area when lights are on. That is one reason we equip our lighting with external dimmers. We cover it as one of the first points in our manual.
However, yes even everyday bulbs around your house impact your eyes. The sun, headlights, etc. Play a role. From an industry standpoint, everyone is chasing the next best and brightest light.
