People usually pay attention to the harm UV brings to their skin. But the sun protection for eyes is concerned by few of them. In fact, studies have shown that ultraviolet light can cause keratitis, cataracts, retinal damage and other eye diseases, which cannot be ignored. So, we can’t ignore the eye injury caused by ultraviolet radiation.
In the hot weather, people must not look directly at the sunlight. Eyes are extremely weak. One may feel dizzy after looking up to sun for a short while. While, the long-term exposure will lead to eye pain, tearing, redness and blurred vision, etc, and thus harm the retina.
The eyes which can absorb many ultraviolet lights with different wavelengths are most sensitive to UV. among which the ultraviolet ray of 280 mμm wave-length is the most harmful to the retina and it may cause UV gland conjunctivitis. And the ultraviolet radiation with a wavelength of 290-400 nm can damage the lens, which is a vital factor of cataract.
Surveys declare the time you roast in the sun every day increase one hour, the possibility you may get cataract will increases 10% correspondingly. What should we do to prevent that from happening?
When going out, remember to wear the hat or get the parasol and wear the eyeglasses in order to prevent the sunlight form directly going into the eyes. It is noteworthy that sunglasses must be of high quality. If it is a pair of inferior glasses simply covered by a colour, contrary to the function of protection from the sun, it will lead to pupil dilatation, which is a bigger harm to our eyes.
Prepare a pair of UV-cut ray ban for summer use, and you will benefit a lot. Medical studies have certified that lenses in grey are best as grey have little influence on the effect of vision but effective in anti-UV. For those who wear contact lenses, there are also contact lenses with anti-ultraviolet code to block UV rays. If people put on another pair of ray ban sunglasses , then the level of security will be higher.
The sunlight at noon is the most strong and most harmful. It will cause enormous harm to both your skin and eyes, therefore, it will be best for you not to go out at that time.
