I have been welding for about 8 years. A auto darkening lens helps alot when others are welding around you, but sometimes you have to keep your hood up when you have to put things together. Sometimes I wear dark safety glasses to help with the flashes. If you have a white wall, consider putting up a dark fire blanket. When I burn my eyes I use a lubricating eye drop that is like a gel to sooth the burn in my eyes. You can buy these eye drops over the counter.
