5 eye diseases must be careful when exposed to UV 

Cataracts are caused by exposure to UV rays. which stimulates the rupture of collagen tissue in the conjunctiva causing the conjunctiva to deteriorate and thicken Most in the early stages there are no obvious symptoms. But when the cataract is large or inflamed Eye irritation, burning, watery eyes, or redness may occur.
pterygium. The main pathogenic factor is UV exposure. in the sun regularly It is classified as degenerative conjunctivitis, as well as glaucoma. in the pterygium The conjunctiva becomes thicker and more tissues and blood vessels are formed. It becomes red tissue on the black eye, which if the pterygium is so large or thick that it covers the cornea, it can affect vision. and to the curvature of the black eye from foreign objects in the eye
Cataract. Although this disease is more common in the elderly due to the natural deterioration of the lens of the eye. But prolonged exposure to UVA rays in sunlight is another factor contributing to molecular changes. causing the lens of the eye to lose its clarity When the lens is cloudy, vision is reduced. Therefore, cataracts can occur at a young age as well.
Macular degeneration, UVB radiation (UVB) is a factor that directly affects the degeneration of the center of the retina. The UVB rays will reduce the concentration of pigments. resulting in a risk factor for macular degeneration faster
Cancer Prolonged exposure to the sun is another common cause of eyelid cancer. because it stimulates the production of melanin pigment around the eyelids causing wrinkles around the eyes and skin cancer on the eyelids
