A mask for protecting the eye-sight of an operator carrying out arc welding, having a viewing window covered by a liquid crystal screen which can be switched either to a substantially transparent condition or to a condition of high absorbency, in which the liquid crystal screen is so arranged that, when not activated it is in its highly absorbent state, switching to its substantially transparent condition when activated by an electrical circuit, and in which the electrical circuit for controlling the liquid crystal screen is arranged to remain totally inactive unless the operator controls it to switch the liquid crystal screen to its transparent condition in order to view the area being worked on without light being absorbed.
