The Eyecare Trust has published a guide to safe sun vision for practitioners to provide their customers with practical advice and information on protecting eyes from the harmful effects of ultraviolet light.
The six-page long Guide to UV Protection has been produced with Hoya Lens UK to highlight how our eyes are 10 times more sensitive to UV light than the skin and includes details about the short- and long-term effects of exposure to UVA and UVB.
The guide also includes practical advice on choosing the right sunglasses to suit different lifestyles. It stresses the need to protect children's eyes in the sun, also part off a national media campaign by the Trust, which has produced a template press release for practitioners.
