The sun gets in your eyes

Wearing sunglasses is so much more than just a fashion statement.耀眼阳光，不可不防。佩戴太阳眼镜绝不只是一种时尚主张而已。

Every time you look in the mirror, a pair of eyes looks back at you. Those same eyes can see a glimmer from a candle from a distance of 14 miles. They process 36,000 bits of information every hour and can distinguish 500 shades of gray. Your eyes' intricate inner workings deserve as much protection as you can give them and wearing sunglasses outdoors is a very good way to start.

Whether you're hiking, watching a baseball game or walking on a city sidewalk, don your sunglasses! Why? Exposure to the UVA and UVB in sunlight damages the eyes, leading to very serious eye problems.

When you choose sunglasses, your priority should be protection. The most important element should be lenses that provide 99 to 100 percent UVA and UVB protection or a UV 400 protective coating.

Everyone needs the same level of UV protection no matter what their ethnic background or eye color is. Ideally, sunglasses should have lenses that wrap around the face and cover the eyes and surrounding skin and eyelids completely. People can get skin cancer on their eyelids! So get in the habit of wearing sunglasses. Keep them by the door, and always grab them when you go out. Your eyes will thank you for years and years to come.
