Winter Eye Protection

Winter brings unique challenges for eye health. Cold, dry air can cause discomfort, and UV rays reflected off snow can damage your eyes.

Tips for protecting your eyes this winter:

- Use artificial tears to combat dry eye symptoms - Wear sunglasses with UV protection, even on cloudy days - Protect your eyes from wind with wraparound frames - Stay hydrated and use a humidifier indoors - Take breaks from indoor heating which can dry out eyes

If you experience persistent dryness or irritation, schedule an appointment with Dr. Sunga.
