Sunglasses Arent Just For Sunny Days
Every daywhether it is sunny or cloudy, and despite the seasonwe are exposed to ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun. While many people are aware of the benefits of protecting their skin with clothing and sunscreen to prevent UV exposure, they do not take precautions to defend their eyes.
Sunglasses are the best way to protect the eyes and the sensitive skin around the eyes from overexposure to the suns UV rays. Unprotected exposure can lead to cataracts and macular degeneration, two of the leading causes of vision loss among older Americans.
When choosing sunglasses, select sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays and buy from a reputable retailer.
