No. The special glasses have it under control. The combat visor has it under control. They're the only things that can hold my power back. Ruby-Quartz lenses. I can't just take them off and be normal.
History
The visored mask Cyclops wears to prevent random discharge is lined with powdered ruby-quartz crystal. It incorporates two longitudinally mounted flat lenses which can lever inward providing a constantly variable exit slot of 0 inches to .79 inches in height and a constant width of 5.7 inches. The inverted clamshell mechanism is operated by a twin system of miniature electrical motors. As a safety factor there is a constant positive closing pressure provided by springs. The mask itself is made of high-impact cycolac plastic. There is an overriding finger-operated control mechanism on either side of the mask, and normal operation is through a flat micro-switch installed at the base of the thumb on each glove.
Cyclops has used at least five different versions of the visor, the first four were gold or bronze in color, and the fifth is black.
