UV light can cause cataracts (cloud ing of the eye lens) and damage to the retina (back of the eye where observed images are pro jected). According to the Hand book of Nonprescription Drugs, UV light can cause temporary damage called photokeratitis, a painful type of “snow blindness” that affects the cornea. Many individuals mistakenly think that all sunglasses equally protect the eyes. All sunglasses are not the same. According to Dr. William Blockstein, writing in a recent issue of Pharmacy Today, there are several things to consider when selecting UV protective sunglasses: The Wranglers Riding Club will hold a mountain trail ride on Sunday, July 23, beginning at 11 a.m. 1.
