Description
Custom side shields designed for Ray-Ban Meta Wayfarer glasses to help reduce dust, debris, wind, and peripheral light during everyday use, shop work, outdoor activities, and 3D printing projects.
These lightweight clip-on shields are designed to follow the shape of the Wayfarer frame while maintaining access to the cameras, speakers, microphones, and controls. The low-profile design provides additional side coverage without significantly changing the look or feel of the glasses.
This version has been revised from my original design to improve arm-folding clearance. The updated geometry allows the glasses to fold more naturally, making it easier to fit them into the original Ray-Ban Meta case while the side shields remain installed.
An excellent end-of-spool project, each set uses less than 5g of filament depending on slicer settings.
PLA can be used for fit testing, but more heat-resistant materials are recommended for long-term use.
These side shields are not certified safety equipment and are not impact-rated. They are not a substitute for ANSI or CSA-approved safety glasses and should not be relied upon as protective eyewear in hazardous environments. Use at your own risk.
