Macular Degeneration and the Effects from UV Lights
Are you aware of the harmful effects of ultra-violet light (UV), “blue light” (light from cell phones, computer screens, tablets, etc.), and their correlations to eye stress, and macular degeneration? UV lights are damaging and can lead to cataracts and other eye diseases. It’s important to make sure you’re wearing the correct eyewear to protect your eyes. Fortunately, we have lens coatings to combat this problem, just ask!
Learn more about macular degeneration from the American Macular Degeneration Foundation.
