Sun Protective Hats and Sunglasses
Protect your eyes and neck from the sun's (uvr) ultra violet radiation
Wear a hat with a brim of at least 3 inches.
Baseball caps do not provide adequate protection because they do not cover the neck or the ears...two areas especially vulnerable to skin cancer.
Wear sunglasses, clothing and accessories that provide 100% UV Blockage.
Sunglasses should block UV light entering from the top and sides of the glasses.
Exposure to ultraviolet radiation increases the risk of cataracts which can cloud vision… and if left untreated, may lead to blindness.
WARNING: Many sunglasses made for babies and children are toys and do not provide adequate protection. Ensure that your child wears sunglasses that block 100% UV.
