Eye protection devices are described that can be utilized in conjunction with a riding helmet for equestrian use. The eye protection device can fit snugly and safely on the wearers head without impacting the desired fit of the riding helmet. In addition, the eye protection device can include pads on the frame so as to maintain a gap between the frame and the wearer for air flow around the lenses of the eye protection device, which can prevent fogging of the lenses and any visual impairment due to such fogging.
