Alibaba, Ali Express, and Banggood.com all sell protective eyewear for various wavelengths of lasers.
Also Alibaba and AliExpress both sell powerful blue and green lasers if you want to have some fun. Just use care and always wear your eye protection!

I'm not sure I'd trust any of what those companies sell.

Looks like:
Wavelength | OD |
|---|---|
| 804 - 1755 | 3 - 3.1 |
| 1064 | 5 - 5.1 |
| 1065 - 1440 | 4 - 4.1 |

Tks & IMO 3.0 is mediocre protection for 905nm exposure in this little hobby of ours. If you're a 'Tester' (a/k/a Shooter) of Lidar defense systems, your glasses are unacceptable.
As an active Shooter of/for Forum members I use OD 5 only for best protection in my semi-frequent usage !
You know, in thinking about leveraging a lidar gun in its intended use case, I’m not sure I’ve ever seen traffic enforcement wearing special eye protection when using them and clearly drivers aren’t expected to do so.
I realize in typical use cases drivers are hit only briefly, which helps reduce risk, while during our testing we might endure prolonged exposure. But as the person operating the lidar gun, it seems the parameters of use aren’t markedly different, right? Whether you’re shooting one car repeatedly or 100 different cars, isn’t the outcome for the shooter essentially the same?

The danger isn't from the lidar beam that comes back from the gun, it's from the jammers shooting hundreds of pulses back to the gun/shooter.
That makes so much more sense. Thank you for reminding me.
@Deacon
Even more important to remember is if you're using a Lidar gun that has magnification lenses (eg: TSS or LaserAtlanta) your IR exposure would have much more focused intensity to your pupil.
Found the specs for these $10 pair. Seems to be what we need.
Lens Technology
5.0 IR Filter Lens: Commonly used around welding sites or for medium to heavy cutting and medium to heavy gas welding.
| Visible Light Transmitted 380-780nm | 2% |
| UVA, UVB Blocked 200-380nm | 99% |
| Blue Light Blocked 400-700nm | 99% |
| IR Blocked 780-2000nm | 99% |
I had picked up a few IR Glasses...
I use these when shooting... but when using the PL3, the HUD goes blank viewing through when wearing.
3.0 IR Filter Len
and these for anyone standing next to me
When targeting LJs, especially my setup I did at one testing site, if you didn't have something one, you felt the effects.
