Abstract
A sunshield comprised of a large lens assembly (32) providing protection for the face and head from solar radiation wind, snow, flying objects, caustic liquids, water, and other forces. A one piece lens (12) is comprised of a tinted transparent plastic coated with ultraviolet radiation blocking coating. Lens (12) can be comprised of optically correcting material to accommodate wearer's vision. Lens assembly (32) flips up over the front of the head to act as a visor by protecting the front of the head and shading the forehead or to enable lens assembly (32) to be out of the line of sight without removal. Lens assembly (32) can be adjusted to a comfortable distance from the wearer's face and to accommodate wearing of ordinary eyeglasses.
