Professional's Choice Fly Mask - UV Protection with Soft Ears

Keep Eyes Safe and Flies Out — All Day Comfort Without Rubbing

If your horse deals with sun sensitivity, persistent flies, or medical eye conditions like uveitis, this mask delivers the protection they need without the irritation cheap masks cause. The Professional's Choice Fly Screen Mask combines UV-blocking rip-stop mesh with a contoured bubble fit that keeps fabric away from sensitive eyes and eyelashes — no corneal contact, no rubbing, no hair loss along the face.

Built for daily turnout or trail rides, the double elastic cheek straps lock the mask in place so your horse can't rub it off, while super-soft fleece binding eliminates the forehead friction that leads to bald spots. Breathable ear coverings keep gnats out without trapping heat, and the integrated forelock hole prevents shifting during movement. From our barn to yours — this is the mask that stays put and keeps them comfortable.

Why Riders Choose This Fly Mask

• UV protection for sensitive eyes and pink skin — Rip-stop mesh blocks harmful rays, making it essential for horses prone to sun damage or light-sensitive conditions like uveitis.
• Contoured eye darts create a protective bubble — Mesh stays safely away from eyelashes and the cornea, preventing irritation and corneal abrasions during wear.
• Double elastic cheek straps for a secure fit — Dual-closure system under the jaw keeps the mask from sliding or being rubbed off, even on horses that scratch frequently.
• Super-soft fleece binding prevents hair loss — Gentle fleece along the brow and edges eliminates the rubbing and bald patches caused by standard binding materials.
• Breathable ear coverings shield from gnats — Lightweight fabric keeps bugs out of the ears while maintaining airflow to prevent overheating.
• Forelock hole keeps the mask secure — Dedicated opening lets the forelock sit naturally outside the mask, preventing shifting during grazing or movement.

Best For

Horse owners with sun-sensitive or medical-needs horses looking for secure, non-irritating fly and UV protection that won't rub off or cause hair loss during daily turnout or trail rides.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: How do I choose the right size for my horse?

This Professional's Choice Fly Screen Mask runs large compared to other brands. If your horse is between sizes, we recommend sizing down — for example, choosing Cob/SM for an average-sized horse. The double elastic straps provide a custom, gap-free fit once you have the right base size.

Q: Can this mask help horses with uveitis or light sensitivity?

Yes. The high UV-protective mesh and contoured bubble design make it a go-to choice for therapeutic use. Because the fabric stays away from the eye surface and blocks harmful rays, many owners use it as part of their uveitis management protocol.

Q: Is it safe to wear this mask while riding?

Absolutely. The breathable ear coverings and secure double-strap system keep the mask stable under a bridle, making it ideal for trail rides or light work when flies are persistent. The mask won't shift or obstruct vision during movement.
