Eye reflection?

I know this is going to be a bit of a stupid question:eek: lol but I was just wondering if it is possible to stop the reflection of your eyes from your lense on some masks?
I have a set of events and use the yellow lense since I mostly play in the woods..
I heard that there is a similar issue like this with the gold/black Dye i4's because of the colour, apparently if you tape inside your mask at the bottom it stops this?
Like I said I know this seems a bit stupid but i've seen this question somewhere before and now its happening to me which can be a bit irritating :/
thankyou for any suggestions in advance :)

Yep i've got a visor, but where I play there its mainly dense woodland so a visor won't make much of a difference :/
Also anyone who does have the limited edition black/gold dye i4's (I think its them ones) comment on if it does happen and if you can fix it?

i've got the white and gold i4's and got alot of revlection from the grill at top. it is like looking through bars on a bright day. i solved it by making an i3 fan fit.cos they don't make a visor or fan for i4s. it blocks the light coming in. try putting you hand over top of mask. if that stops your prob fit one of the visors you get with mask. or buy a fan. or you could just tape the top vent up. goggles might steam up tho.

I had this problem with light getting into my i4's. I didn't realise there was no option to fit a peak. It also made them useless in the rain so I sold them on in the end. Pity as I liked the style and fit of them.

Have the same problem with my Dye i4; internal reflection. Shame, as the mask is very comfortable to wear and has a good field of vision.
I tried gaffer tape over the grill at the top; doesn't work. A peak is needed but Dye don't make
one for the i4. I've changed the original smoke lense with a yellow one but the problem remains; the i4 needs a peak. Only way round the problem that I can see is a Dye i3 which has a peak.

You're not alone with this problem, Tom...
