Understanding UV Rays:
- UV (ultraviolet) rays are invisible rays emitted by the sun that can cause damage to your eyes over time.
- There are three types of UV rays: UVA, UVB, and UVC. While UVC rays are mostly absorbed by the atmosphere, UVA and UVB rays can penetrate the eyes and lead to various eye conditions.
Risks of UV Exposure:
- Prolonged exposure to UV rays without protection can increase the risk of developing eye conditions such as cataracts, macular degeneration, and photokeratitis (sunburn of the cornea).
- UV rays can also contribute to the development of certain types of eye cancer, emphasizing the importance of proactive protection.
The Importance of Sunglasses:
- UV rays can also contribute to the development of certain types of eye cancer, emphasizing the importance of proactive protection.
- Look for sunglasses with 100% UV protection or UV400, which block both UVA & UVB rays.
- Polarized lenses not only reduce glare, but also provide additional protection by blocking reflected UV rays.
