Did you ever think that the sun could be cancerous? Not just for your skin, but for your eyes as well. There have been several scientific studies that are concluding that if you are out in the sun for too long without sunglasses, you may be at risk of developing cancer. Without sunglasses, the sun beating in your eyes will serve you at risk for getting cataracts in your eyes, different growths on the eye, and what they refer to as “macular degeneration.”

After performing these studies, ophthalmologists encourage recommend that you wear 95% or more Ultra Violet absorbent eyewear when you are out having your fun in the sun. Usually the sun sends off Ultra Violet Radiation in the summer three times stronger than it does in the winter! Always make sure that you wear sunglasses even if you are having fun in the pool (or any other body of water).

Though summertime calls for the most attention when it comes to wearing sunglasses, if you are playing sports outside in sunny weather even during the wintertime, it is still recommended to wear your sunglasses.

Did you know that every single pair of sunglasses sold must be approved by the FDA? It’s true! If you are going from a regular day to day sunny schedule, the medium shaded lens is perfect. You may want to make it on your list to purchase some darker shaded sunglasses though, just incase it is extra bright and sunny.

Sunglasses are in style, so you shouldn’t have a problem or feel embarrassed to wear them. Do yourself a favor and go get yourself a cool pair! You are decreasing your risk of developing cancer by doing so! Not only will you look and feel great, but your eyes will thank you in the end!
