UV Rays Are Sneaky Eye Threats | Hattiesburg News

Summer sun? It’s great for your mood — but beware: those UV rays aren’t just skin-deep. They’re sneaking into your eyes, risking cataracts and macular degeneration. Reflections off water, sand, and concrete? Still dangerous. Tanning beds and welding torches? Also culprits. Protect your peepers with 100% UV-blocking sunglasses and a wide-brimmed hat. Avoid peak sun hours (10 a.m. to 4 p.m.) and remember — clouds don’t block UV. And don’t skip your annual eye exam. Stay safe, see clearly, and enjoy the season without sacrificing your vision.
