its not uncomon mate, headgears great but a perfectly placed punch will still do the damage.

No. My eyes have gotten a little puffy, but I never got a black eye.

i think it really depends on which type of headgear you use, i have everlast and it doesn't cover the eyes at all, it just goes round the head and temple and down towards the chin. theres no eye cover at all.

Thats the kind I have, but mine goes down around the cheek bone a little too.
