July is Ultraviolet (UV) Safety Month, sponsored by the American Academy of Ophthalmology (AAO). This month, you are encouraged to protect your eyes from the sun's damaging UV rays. Prolonged exposure to UV rays can cause eye conditions such as cataracts, age-related macular degeneration, and vision loss. It is important to protect yourself and loved ones during the summer months, when UV radiation is at its highest.
