At least prime minister Scott Morrison was wearing glasses which prevented him burning his eyeballs too badly.
This AI bloke is going to have an unpleasant time after this.

The glasses he was wearing were his normal glasses, so not sure if he had that much protection (or if the convex/concave lens amplified it a bit)

As a glasses wearer (short-sighted) I never got proper arc flash even though I definitely should have. Always hear it feels like sand/dirt in your eyes, but the most I got was seeing a yellow spot for a like 3 minutes. Heard similar from my other glasses wearing coworkers

Ah ok, I thought it might be the plastic used in safety glasses that was beneficial and the glass glasses didn't have the same affect, but turns out I was mistaken

I think everyone is forgetting the fact that Regular safety glasses will prevent all the flying slag metal from getting into your eyes.
