Serious eye and facial injuries can occur from quick, off-balance shots when using scope-mounted rifles, particularly with unfamiliar or large bore firearms where the scope's eye relief is uncertain. Most scope eye ends are made of metal or hard rubber, posing a risk of injury. The scope eye is specifically designed to reduce or eliminate these risks, stretching securely over the scope eyepiece for added protection. Like many safety accessories in shooting sports, the scope eye is often only fully appreciated after an injury. However, using this simple device can make the difference between a safe, successful hunt and an unexpected, costly trip to the doctor.
