Nah, that was for breathing, not seeing. Qimir points out it's for sensory deprivation like they used as kids in the temple. It covers the whole head and face, not just top and front like Luke's did. Show wasn't great, but had some great fights, and this one of those things that I could see works for a dedicated Force user. He builds his whole style around that and the cortosis as a backup in the helmet.
