    I am now 73. I started welding in 1970. My gift to you is two fold. My first gift is to find another skill trade other than welding. You can not totally protect your retina from the radium radiation from TIG welding. When you get old, and when it is dark, you will ALWAYS have a dark haze in the center of you field of vision at night. The only thing you can do to limit this is number two of this gift. USE YOUR PERIPHERAL VISION AS YOUR GUIDE ........look ahead of your weld pool, not directly at the arc. This will take a ton of practice and patience. If you think you are so good, and retina failure will not happen to you, you are a fool. Your FIRST JOB is to protect your eyes FIRST.
