Wearing goggles is a way for people to protect their eyes from something harmful. One of the first pairs of goggles was made by the Inuits. They fashioned them from caribou antlers. The antlers curved around their eyes and had tiny slits that allowed a small amount of light to enter. These goggles prevented snow blindness. Snow blindness can occur during the springtime when intense sunlight is reflected off the white snow. In addition, people began wearing goggles for other activities. When working with tools, goggles can prevent eye damage from tiny objects flying. This can be seen when a blowtorch is used and sparks fly around the worker.
