Matters needing attention

Be careful of ultraviolet rays when you are active in cloudy weather. Ultraviolet ray is the general name of radiation with the wavelength from 10 nm to 400 nm in the electromagnetic spectrum, which can't be detected by human eyes, but too much ultraviolet ray may harm eyes.

The German Good Vision Association reminds that in cloudy summer, people should not forget to protect sensitive eyes, because some ultraviolet rays can still reach the surface through clouds, and long-term use may cause certain damage to eyes.

The association also said that people who stay near the water for a long time should pay more attention to protecting their eyes because the water reflects light. If the eyes are damaged by too much ultraviolet rays, there will be symptoms such as redness, tears and eye muscle tension.
