    Don't forget to close your eyes and hold your breath while doing this.

    What if you wear glasses?

      Usually you just take them off. Some masks have prescription lenses available, and others have fittings to clip on prescription inserts/outserts, but both of these are a bit of a faff to deal with. A couple of masks have pockets in the sides to accommodate the arms of properly-shaped glasses frames, but these are rare. This is part of the reason for the US Army's vision requirements; if your vision is poor enough that taking off your glasses hampers you in an emergency, you're better off someplace where you're not likely to ever need a gas mask (or ballistic eyewear for that matter).
      Whatever you do, do NOT wear contacts under a gas mask. The air coming out of the filter is extremely dry, and could potentially ruin your lenses or even cause eye issues.

      There are still hoods that attach to the mask like an overlay.

      Nope, these are real M50 respirators. Airsofters sometimes use real milsurp masks, which might be why you're confused.
