    For soldering, fusing, and melting, I wear a pair of didymium
    spectacles over my own prescription eyeglasses, and they both just
    fit under my Optivisor brand magnifier head loupe. I didn't use that
    protection until I got oxy-propane in the form of a Smith Little
    Torch, which replaced my acetyline-air Prestolite torch. There
    seemed to be more flux sodium flare, and I see through it much better
    with the didymium lenses. I did not get these didymium eyeglasses
    through Rio or Stuller. I think they came from an industrial supplier
    of some kind.
