No matter what time of year it is, remember to wear eyewear that blocks 100 percent of UV rays to protect your eyes so you can see your best.
MANY people may not realize that spending time outdoors, whether during summer or any other season, can lead to vision issues caused from exposure to UV rays, such as the development of cataracts or even skin cancer around the eyes. In fact, a recent study by Transitions Optical revealed that three out of 10 people believe that protecting their eyes from UV rays is only necessary during the spring and summer months. But UV rays are present all year round, whether it is sunny or cloudy, and can still contribute to the development of serious vision issues.
