A pair of goggles worn by the person has lenses that are light filters and/or polarizers. The light source may be in the form of a flashlight which has filters and/or polarizers disposed over the output. The lenses and polarizer are preferably removable and the polarizer may be rotatable to provide various illuminating light combinations. The image reviewed by the person as a consequence of the lenses in the goggles and over the flashlight are enhanced for viewing features of the skin depending upon the combination of lenses, filters, polarizers and their respective relative orientations.
