Yes...but unlike the pros you have to go to work tomorrow.

I'm lucky. I didn't wear a visor until I was about 35. I took a puck off of the logo on my helmet and I thought that was too close. Took me two years to finally get the visor. So what happened in my first game with a visor? Slapper from the point takes a weird rebound off of the goalies pad and hits me on the visor. I was never hit in the face until that day but what timing was that to put the visor on?
After a few years I decided I'm safer with a full face shield. Almost a couple months later I took one in the shield that surely saved me from lost teeth. I'm lucky with my timing.
