I have a rule about taking advice from a dark priest. I don't do it.Did Earinc tell you this?
Just curious because it is stupid and the type of thing a salesman would say.

Ear Inc is the Yeti of hearing protection
Some info on eye-pro. If you use light colored or clear eye-pro, your ability to focus on different distances will improve. It's kinda like setting an F-Stop on a camera. With a smaller aperture - like when your pupil gets smaller in bright light - you get a greater depth of field.

I could find a few articles I read and post how plugs don't stop the sound vibration from moving the bones on the ears and causing damage but you won't care. It isn't the actual sound but the vibration that is also harmful.No Science does.. ear muffs alone are not good enough. They don't stop the sound waves from hitting your ear drum, there isn't a barrier to stop them. It's pretty simple physics really. Ear Inc is who I went with, there are other companies out there.
What about someone that took acoustic physics in college? I'm guessing you didn't.
Anyone that does NOT recommend custom fitted ear plugs doesn't know how sound waves work. if there is even a nanometer breach in the muffs and your skin the sound wave is going to penetrate and reverberate inside the cavity which leads directly to your ear drum.

SO a summary of why the acoustics of muffs are terrible compared to custom ears.. is because the pinna (the part of your outer ear that directs sound to your inner ear) is still open, meaning the sound still travels directly through the ear canal to your drum and the middle and inner ear.... if you have a custom fit then the pinna is blocked forcing the sound to be much more dampened and the acoustic waves can't travel directly through the ear canal because of the blocking mechanism that the custom fit ear protection blocks. With Headphones the sound is muffled some but still travels into your ear canal. the dB level between muffs and custom ear inserts is between 25 and 50 dB... anything that reaches above 85 dB is enough to permanently damage your hearing.. keep in mind a normal conversation is 65 dB a shotgun blast is 160 and a .357 is 165... So the difference of even 10dB can make a massive difference to protecting your hearing when you are talking about firearms.
But hey.. what the EFF ever.. keep wearing your headphones your hearing is probably already damaged anyway if you've been doing it for years.
I actually got fired from a job at an e commerce company for taking an order for "Harry Balzak"Harry McBallsack?
