Most people are aware of the risks of de-- . veloping skin cancer from the sun, but are less aware that UV rays can cause damage to the eyes. Long-terexposure to UV rays has been linked to skin cancer around the eyelids. Sunscreen is essential to protecting your skin, but a good pair of sunglasses will help protect your eyes. One of the risk factors for developing cataracts is long time exposure to UV rays. Cataract is the most prevalent eye disease in the world, and according to the World Health Organization, the leading cause of blindness. There are nearly 20.5 million Americans age 40 and older with cataract. In Utah, there are 114,200 Americans age 40 and older age-relate- d with cataract. Cataract affects more than half of all Americans by the age of 80, so anything you can do to cut your risk is advised. UV radiation in sunlight, and including both UV-- ADHD UV-B- , has been shown to be harmful to the eye. Constant exposure to bright sunlight can damage the cornea (the clear outer part of the eye that allows lights through to the retina), the lens (the part of the eye responsible for focusing), and the retina (the innermost layer of the eye that sends an image to the brain). The risk is greatest at midday, from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. and during summer months. Anyone who spends long hours outdoors without proper eye protection is at risk of developing photokeratistis sunburn on the cornea. While it is not permanent, corneal sunburn can be extremely painful, result in temporary loss of vision, and lead to the development of cataracts. Pterygium is another risk. Pterygium is UV-relate- d this condition. . While some professions and climates put people at greater risk, the best defense for everyone is to wear sunglasses that screen 99 to 100 percent of UV rays and brimmed hats. At our high elevation, sunny ski slopes, and warm summers, Utahns should be especially concerned about the effects of sun on their eyes. And dont forget the kids. The damaging effects of the sun impact them, too. Choosing unbreakable, sunglasses and a hat that shades the face is the best way to protect them. well-fitte- d The Utah Safety Council now offers benign tissue growth that starts in the white of the eye, but may extend to the cornea.
