It is the responsibility of the player to ensure that the quality of the product worn is satisfactory for the purpose.

Recommended eye guards are those that have undergone stringent testing and have been passed as suitable for squash by the National Standards Associations for Racquet Sport Eye Protection of Canada, England, Australia and the United States.
