Disclosed is an article designed to attenuate intensive and unwanted light emitted by an IPL or laser device that may occasionally reach the eyes of a user or operator, while not limiting their ability to see in a bright region. Eye protection is achieved by an assembly of baffles extending towards the source of IPL. The baffles limit the field of view of the article to a value sufficient for coupling a safe amount of light intensity enabling comfortable IPL or laser applicator tracking and operation.
