Potential Damage To Your Eyes:
UV rays have been linked to cataracts, cancer of the skin around the eyes and long-term eye damage such as macular degeneration of the retina.
- Ultraviolet light is invisible to the human eye and is divided into two distinct types of rays:
- UV-A rays are less intense than UV-B; however, UV-A penetrates deeper into the eye than UV-B.
Pearle Vision Protection
Protecting your eyes against UV-A and -B rays is the best course of action. Pearle Vision recommends that all eyewear — including sunglasses, prescription and nonprescription glasses — block a minimum of 95 percent UV-A rays.
