How to protect your eyes from the sun’s UV rays?

Jul 06,2023

Excessive UV radiation from the sun can be harmful leading to sunburns, skin aging, eye damage, and skin cancer. Don't forget to wear your sunnies even when it’s cloudy. UV rays can still cause damage on a dreary day. Large sunglasses cover more of the delicate area around your eyes for maximum protection (and even more style). 

Here are 5 tips to protect your eyes from the sun’s UV rays:

1. Limit time in the sun (especially between 10 am and 4 pm).

2. Do not sunburn and seek shade.

3. Monitor the UV index when planning outdoor activities.

4. Always wear sunscreen.

5. Wear protective clothing.

For example, hats offer great sun protection!

Also, invest in a brand-new pair of sunglasses!
