Solar Vizor Fly Mask - Standard Style

I’m extremely happy with the SolarVizor. My mare lost one eye to a complication from epithelial immune-modulated keratitis and has the same disease in her remaining eye, and so lives in protective masks full time to protect it. I got the SolarVizor because the Recovery Vizor (which I also love, and protected her eye for many months successfully!) was too hot on her face during the hot and humid heatwaves and generally high summer temperatures we’ve been having, and she was losing the hair on her cheeks and around her ears. Switching to the SolarVizor helped stop the hair loss, and even better has let the hair start to regrow, while continuing to protect from/prevent her rubbing her eye, like the Recovery Vizor did. As a recommendation for other horse owners trying to manage chronic eye conditions via masks in hot weather—I did remove the inner EVA lining to improve airflow, since sweat (and not necessarily UV protection) was my main need. Highly recommend!

Nemo had cryosurgery for squamous cell carcinomas on his lower eyelid. This solar shield is exactly what he needs to protect his healing eye from sun and bugs. Other masks collapsed, irritating his healing eyelid.

I have several fly masks, depending on what the horse needs from protective Pet solutions. This is another great one ..it stays away from the horse’s eyes, protectsfrom flies, dust, wind, etc. these are great masks and indestructible. One of them is about four years old. and it still looks fabulous. It’s used all the time.
