visor

• A transparent part of a helmet that protects the eyes from intense sunlight, debris, and, in futuristic settings, even bullets.

• A similar piece of eyewear consisting only of the eye-covering part, without the helmet - this is often seen in futuristic settings as some kind of head-mounted display or augmented-reality headset. This usage is also commonly seen in hypnofetish scenarios, where it's a typical variety of mind control device. (Such usage should also be tagged as hypnotic visor.) This type is usually transparent, but some cases may not be, appearing more like a blindfold that presumably contains some kind of display on the inside. (See also: VR headset.)

• • scouter - single eye version

• A type of hat consisting of only a peak and a band that goes around the head. Often associated with gamblers.

Not to be confused with:

• protogen_visor - The visor-like digital display of Protogens and Primagens, which externally resembles a visor of the second type but is actually an integral part of their body with no "real eyes" underneath.
