Sunglasses not only enhance your appearance and add a trendy touch, but they also act as accessories that offer several long-term vision health benefits.
As reported by the Hindustan Times on Tuesday, ophthalmologist and eye surgeon Dr. Neeraj Sanduja, MBBS, MS, said investing in good sunglasses helps maintain eye health for years to come.
“Investing in good UV-protective sunglasses isn't just about looking cool, it's about seeing clearly and keeping your eyes healthy for years to come,” he says.
One of the most important functions of sunglasses is to protect the eyes from the sun's harmful ultraviolet (UV) rays. Prolonged exposure to UV radiation can cause various eye problems, including cataracts, macular degeneration, and even skin cancer around the eyelids.
This emphasizes the importance of choosing good quality sunglasses, which serve as a benchmark against the habit of buying just any sunglasses.
