MyEyeWear2Go Carries the Best Sunglasses for UVA and UVB Protection

Middlesex NJ, July 6, 2016 (Newswire.com) - MyEyeWear2Go, the online prescription eyeglass store, is proud to announce they are once again carrying the year's best sunglasses for uva and uvb protection, and would also like to make sure everyone understands these terms that are plastered all over sunglasses ads and recited nonstop in sun lotion commercials.

The Basic Facts

 Although both are forms of ultraviolet radiation, they differ in their wavelengths, and thus their biological activity and ability to penetrate the skin.

• UVA which makes up 95% of the UV radiation reaching the earth, has longer wavelengths and penetrates into the  deeper layers of the skin and accounts for quick tanning. It also plays a role in ageing and wrinkling.

• Medium wavelength UVB is the more harmful of the two since the shorter the wavelength the more damage it does, and the more biological activity it exhibits. Although it cannot enter much deeper than the superficial layers of the skin, it is responsible for delayed tanning and burning, and exacerbates ageing. Even more serious, it is responsible for skin cancer.

UV Rays and the Eyes

Both UVA and UVB radiation harm the eyes and have negative effects on vision. Exposure to excessive sunlight in a short period of time can produce photokeratitis. In laymen's terms, sunburn of the eye, it is a temporary condition not thought to do long-lasting damage, but does come with symptoms like red eyes, sensation of foreign body or grit, excessive tearing, and extreme sensitivity to light.

The longer the eyes are subjected to UVA and UVB, the more the danger of their radiation exacting long term vision-robbing conditions like cataracts and macular degeneration later in life. Since it has not yet been established how much exposure is the tipping for these damaging eye diseases, or whether it varies from person to person, eye care specialists strongly advise that everyone protect their eyes with quality sunglasses that offer UVA and UVB protection every time they go out into the sun, no matter how short or how long the period of time.
