My boy keeps his on 24/7, just removed to check on it usually twice a day and obviously for riding. I think vision is slightly reduced but not much and this probably depends what sort you have, I have a Prem Equine from a few years back and with the standard "how well can I see through it...
44 - First time this year I'd been eligible for the geriatric jumping class at our local show, remember my mum competing 20 years ago and winning a special prize for the oldest combined age of horse and rider at 71 :)
