What visor means

A brim or shade that extends from the front of a cap or hat to shield the eyes from sun, or the movable front part of a helmet that protects the face.

Where the word comes from

From Old French "visere," meaning to look at or examine, derived from Latin "visus," the past participle of "videre" (to see). The word originally referred to the front part of a helmet that could be raised or lowered, then broadened to mean any brim or peak that shields the eyes, as on a cap.
