Fourth of July is over and that means summer is in full
swing! This also means a summer trip may be around the corner, right?! While
you’re busy planning a fun-filled vacation, Site for Sore Eyes Berkeley would
like to provide you with some tips to help keep your eyes healthy during your
travels.
Whether you’re relaxing on the beach, sightseeing in a
foreign country or roughing it camping, protecting your eyes is important.
According to the National Eye
Institute, exposure to sunlight can increase the risk of many eye diseases.
When traveling (and even when you’re not), make sure to wear sunglasses. Your
sunglasses should block 97%-100% UVA and UVB rays. Don’t let the clouds fool
you; it is just as important to wear sunglasses on those days as it is on the
sunny ones. Need a new pair of sunglasses? Stop by Site for Sore Eyes Berkeley and
shop the vast array of designer brands today! A great big floppy sun hat or
baseball cap will also provide some extra protection against harmful rays.
When traveling, be mindful of low-humidity in airplanes and
hotels that can cause your eyes to become dry and irritated. Moisturizing eye
drops are great to keep on hand. If you wear contact lenses, make sure to pack
an extra pair, since they can easily be torn during all the fun and exciting
activities. It’s also a smart idea to bring along a pair of eyeglasses (just in
case). If you are planning on driving long hours, you may want to head over to Site for Sore Eyes Berkeley for an eye exam, which will ensure perfect vision on
the road! So while you’re packing for summer vacation, don’t forget those
sunglasses, contact lenses, and eyeglasses to give you peace of mind that your
vacation will be full of fun and relaxation!
