May is UV Awareness Month ☀️ a reminder that ultraviolet radiation harms your eyes year-round, not just on bright days. Prolonged UV exposure can cause photokeratitis (sunburned eyes), cataracts, macular degeneration, and other vision problems 👁️. Protect your eyes by wearing sunglasses with 100% UVA/UVB protection 🕶️, a wide-brimmed hat 👒, and seeking shade during peak sun hours 🌤️. Regular eye exams help detect UV-related damage early.
