Your eyes are just as vulnerable to UV damage as your skin, yet they’re often the part we forget to protect. Long-term exposure to UV radiation can accelerate ageing of the eye and increase the risk of cataracts, macular degeneration, and even ocular melanoma, a rare but serious form of skin cancer.
Wearing high quality sunglasses with UV400 protection, a broad-brimmed hat, and avoiding peak UV times can dramatically reduce your risk. Taking simple sun-safe steps now helps protect your vision and your long-term eye health for years to come.
Stay sun-safe and look after your eyes! 🧡🖤
