The Sun, UV Light, Your Eyes, and Oakley

Hello, Wonderful People!

Summertime often means long hours in the sun. Most of us remember to protect our skin by applying sunblock, but don’t forget that your eyes need protection as well. Too much sun can damage the eyes. As with skin damage, it is the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun which causes problems.

It is important to start wearing proper eye protection to shield your eyes from years of ultraviolet exposure. By wearing UV-blocking sunglasses, you can enjoy the summer safely while lowering your risk for potentially blinding eye diseases and tumors.

Although direct sunlight from the sun itself is extremely damaging to eyes, reflected UV rays can be even more dangerous. For example:

  • Grass, soil and water reflect less than 10 percent of UV radiation.
  • Fresh snow reflects as much as 80 percent of UV radiation.
  • Dry sand reflects about 15 percent of UV radiation.
  • Sea foam reflects about 25 percent.

OAKLEY Sun Glasses  with Plutonite™ lens material offers top UV Protection filtering 100% of all UVA, UVB up to 400nm and some of harmful blue light can prevent the harmness from sunlight directly or indirectly (reflection of sunlight).
