What do you know about welder's flash? I always protect my eyes behind the welding mask with a sunglass that protects against UVC rays, which they say are the one's that produces redness of the eyes. Whenever I weld for many hours I use these glasses. Also, I am inclined to use a shade 11 lens with the helmet, instead of the much "standard" number 10. Also, I use an eye wash after welding and Murine drops. I have never suffered from welders flash, however, one night many months ago I woke up with one eye feeling the welder's flash. I think it was more the fumes from the welding that caused the irritation because I remember that my fan was blowing the fumes towards that eye. Maybe some welder's flash are caused by the fumes and not by the flash itself. What can you say about this? Pedro/Peter
