Protecting Your Eyes from UV Damage to Prevent Cataracts
Protecting your eyes from UV damage is crucial in preventing cataracts. Prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays can accelerate the clouding of the eye's natural lens, leading to cataracts. To shield your eyes, always wear sunglasses with 100% UV protection, even on cloudy days. A wide-brimmed hat can also help block sunlight from directly hitting your eyes.
Cataracts are a common eye condition characterized by the clouding of the lens, which affects vision. The primary cause of cataracts is aging, as the proteins in the lens break down over time, leading to a loss of transparency.
Eye injuries, certain medications like corticosteroids, and a history of eye surgery or inflammation may further raise the likelihood of cataracts. Additionally, individuals with a family history of cataracts are at a higher risk.
