Tanning Eyewear - Very Critical Protection For You
You are out to have a great time at the beach and you are planning to get a good tan during your vacation. Normally, you would buy all the required lotions and ointments required for outdoor tanning and you would be looking forward to hitting the beach. You could also plan to tan indoors. What about tanning eyewear protection? Have you thought of this?
Protect Your Eyes At All Cost
Your eyes are very precious - protect them at all costs, especially when you are planning to stay out in the sun for hours together. The tanning eyewear normally would protect you from any harmful influence of the ultraviolet rays. Check out the following tips which would help ensure that you do a good job at it. This is applicable for both outdoors and indoor tanning:
Wear your tanning eyewear closely fitting over the eyes. Check it carefully when you buy it whether is fits snugly. If there is any light leaking in, adjust the strap carefully to shut it out; if it cannot be shut out, change your eyewear.
You can avoid 'raccoon eyes' by using self-tanning eye lotions. Never remove your tanning eyewear to get your eyelids tanned. This could damage your eyes and your vision irreversibly.
Do not wear contacts during a tanning session - indoors or outdoors. The eyes might get irritated due to dryness and cause you pain and even infection. The tanning machines would tend to dry out the lens damaging it beyond repair.
Never share tanning eyewear; you would risk getting eye infection if the person who used it before you was suffering from any contagious eye problem.
Never attempt to remove or remove your protective tanning eyewear during a session for any reason whatsoever - while your skin gets tanned, your eyes can get burnt. You would definitely not want a disaster such as this to happen to you.
What Are You Protected From?
The tanning process involves different types of ultraviolet light (UVB) which when let loose on the eyes can cause incredibly painful corneal burns. Similarly, the UVA light rays could enter the retina and cause serious burns and permanent internal eye damage, which can lead to blindness. Milder outcomes of strong exposure to ultraviolet rays are color blindness and night blindness.
Now that you know how to protect your eyes by including protective tanning eyewear in your tanning regimen, you are ready to catch some rays.
