You can use a rift with glasses on, but it's annoying. Arguably having it on you counts as a eye protection though... hard to say whether the transition between safety glasses/rift would be allowable though.

But agree, this might be a good Q&A question.
For some reason it was removed from the game manual, but the safety glasses requirement is buried this year in the admin and safety manuals. See page 3-4 of the safety manual and 4.2.1 of the admin manual.
