How UV Rays Affect Your Eyes – And Why Sunglasses Matter

☀️ How UV Rays Affect Your Eyes

Protect Your Vision with the Right Sunglasses

Just like your skin, your eyes are vulnerable to harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Prolonged sun exposure can increase your risk of cataracts, macular degeneration, and photokeratitis (sunburn of the eye).
Wearing UV-protective sunglasses isn’t just a style choice — it’s essential for long-term eye health.

🕶️ Quality matters

Not all sunglasses are created equal. At Eyeland, we offer prescription and non-prescription sunglasses that block 100% UVA and UVB rays, combining protection with comfort and fashion.
