Too Much Sun Can Make Eyes Sore (duh)

Tonight my eyes are red and sore. Feels like one of those days when been at beach all day.

I was out mid-day for ~4 hours in Keelung coastal area today. I usually wear good sunglasses but not today.

Checked the UVI (UV Index) and saw that it was in the very-high category.

Caught me off guard.

Also feel a bit sun-burned, which is strange, because I’ve been out in the sun a lot last month or so, and much more than today. Even had to apply some after-sun lotion.

So, I’m guessing all was due to very-high UV.

When I first moved to sunny Texas from dreary West Virginia, I went hiking without sunglasses and sunburned my eyes. Apparently that’s a thing. Eye dr said my retinas were burned. Ever since then my eyes have been more sensitive to sunlight. So yeah, def don’t mess around with that
