Sunglasses can give you instant James Dean cool, Audrey Hepburn glamour, or the rock star hipness of Bono. But

UV radiation increases your odds of getting cataracts, which cloud the eye’s lens and lead to diminished eyesight. It
has also been linked to macular degeneration, a treatable, but incurable disease of the macula, a part of the retina
that is essential for sharp vision.

Other UV-related eye problems are pterygium and pingueculum. A pterygium occurs when the conjunctiva, the tissue that lays over the white of the eye, grows into the cornea. A pingueculum is a yellowish bump of tissue
on the white of the eye.

Sunlight that bounces off highly reflective surfaces such as snow, water, sand, or pavement can be
especially dangerous.
