Regular early morning cycling and eyes/skin protection from colder weather

Options
Hi.  My eyes start to produce tears and my facial skin (especially nose) becomes very red and sore.  Can anybody suggest anything that provides some protection? 

Thanks.

    I also use cycling glasses and a balaclava alongside thermal underclothing when it gets really cold. I usually just grab the cheap to mid-range stuff from decathlon and I've always been happy with the quality.

    Thanks for the replies.  New to these type of products.  I can only find the sunglasses on "decathlon", but I need glasses for the dark.

    Thanks.

    Clear glasses (even safety goggles from Screwfix et al if you don't need prescription lenses) are fine for night, some companies like Oakley do pink/rose or yellow/orange tinted ones which are meant to be better for night sight. Otherwise get some adaptive transition ones for summer/winter

    Sam Vimes' Boots Theory of Socioeconomic Unfairness: 

    People are rich because they spend less money. A poor man buys $10 boots that last a season or two before he's walking in wet shoes and has to buy another pair. A rich man buys $50 boots that are made better and give him 10 years of dry feet. The poor man has spent $100 over those 10 years and still has wet feet.
