      Overexposure to ultraviolet (UV) light may lead to issues like photokeratitis (a temporary, painful “sunburn” of the cornea) or increase the risk of long-term conditions such as cataracts or macular degeneration.
      To protect your eyes, wear UV-protective sunglasses and limit direct sun exposure. If you’re experiencing specific symptoms, consult an eye care professional for a proper diagnosis.
