Alright, here's the fix. Even the EU and US forums had no solution for this issue with the quest Shield Your Eyes in the Mines.

How I fixed it:
I added a group member who wasn’t in the Mines, was level 80, and synchronized with them. This allowed me to redo the quest. After completing it, the goggles disappeared.

I have had the problem since completing the quest (series) that my character no longer takes off the glasses that were put on during the quest. The quest is completed, but I can no longer visually transmogrify the head. Even when removing the headgear, you can still see these hideous yellow/green glasses. Does anyone have an idea what I could do about it? Besides opening a ticket or reporting a bug

That is every comment on this page.

Where to go

Pins are the quest’s own POI points from the current retail client, projected onto the in-game zone map. The game marks one blob as the quest’s turn-in; the rest are objective areas. Points that fall outside a map’s window are dropped rather than guessed at.

Before this quest

Taken from the storyline's own step order.

  • Giving Goblins GogglesUndermine · Level 80

    My mentor Enkle may be the loudest voice around here, but he's not the only one who needs help. Our whole crew only listens to him! Which means no one's wearing proper protective equipment. Take these goggles and convince everyone to take 'em on a trial run.
