Effect on Eye
The eyes are very sensitive to
UV radiation
. This is due to the fact that cornea absorbs high doses of
UV light
. This may cause a temporary clouding of the cornea--a condition known as snow-blindness. Chronic effects of exposure to
UV radiation
include corneal
damage
, cataracts and macular degeneration.
