Snow goggles

Snow goggles were a type of eyewear designed to protect one's eyes in arctic environments.

Description
These goggles had narrow, horizontal slits in the middle for the eyes to see through. They were typically made from either wood or bone sourced from caribou antlers.



Powers
Snow goggles provided their wearer protection against the blinding effects of snow, extremely bright light, or spells that targeted vision indirectly, such as sunburst. However, they narrowed the wearer's field of vision, rendering one unable to see either above or below themselves unless they shifted their head.
