The human eye is a very delicate yet a very complex organ. There are many levels of light that the human eye cannot detect or see but can be affected by it. There is an ultraviolet light that shape the ocular adnexa in a negative way. Reducing your ability to see and increases an eye's sensitivity to light. I am suffering from the UV light because of too much exposure to sunlight.
Excessive eye exposure to the ultraviolet light radiated by the sun is known as photokeratitis. The common term for it is snow blindness. Ultraviolet light also has its other effects that are immediate but temporary such as staring in the sun will cause eclipse blindness. Eclipse blindness will burn your eyes as well make you temporarily sightless.
Ultraviolet light can be more or less effective depending on the time of the day. UV light exposure in the afternoon is ten times more powerful than it is in the morning. During a snow day, UV light reaches its full potential within damaging the human eye and it's components. The white color is known to be the most powerful color there is because of its special traits. Snow reflects 85% of the UV light waves which bounce right in our eyes. On the other hand, grass only reflects 2% of UV light so it is not as dangerous. The Cataract is the cloudy area in the eye lens and can be damaged severely by ultraviolet light.
Ultra violet light can be handled with objects such as sunglasses. They protect the eyes from receiving too much radiation from the sun. sunglass brands that are cheap are often made of plastic and ineffective material which does not protect your eyes. Buying a polycarbonate or polarized pair of sunglasses is the best option for your vision.
To sum it up, I did not realize my eyes were being disintegrating over time because my mind does not process everything that happens to me. My mind filters most of the information that goes into my head, therefore I don't realize everything that goes on around me. We humans only see 1 trillionth of the light waves out there and that's one of the reasons why I didn't realize my eye sight was cutting down.

What else can I help you with?
What is a type of ultraviolet ray abbr.?
UVA (ultraviolet A), UVB (ultraviolet B), UVC (ultraviolet C) are types of ultraviolet rays.
What are the potential health risks associated with exposure to radiation that is not visible to the human eye?
Exposure to non-visible radiation, such as ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma radiation, can pose health risks including skin damage, increased risk of cancer, and damage to internal organs. It is important to limit exposure to these types of radiation to protect your health.
Are you seeing ultraviolet rays when you see ultraviolet light?
no, because ultraviolet rays are just above seeing and with ultraviolet lights, you see a more violet color.
What part of speech is ultraviolet?
The word ultraviolet is an adjective. The colour form is a noun.
Which wavelength is longer ultraviolet or light?
The wavelengths of visible light are longer than ultraviolet wavelengths.
What are the health risks of electromagnetic waves?
One health risk i know of is leukemia from the suns ultraviolet light, which is an electromagnetic wave. im sure there are tons of other health risks from other electromagnetic waves such as gamma rays and x-rays.
What are the risks of ultraviolet rays?
A no brained would be sun burn but long time exposed without the proper protection from uv rays it can lead to things as serious as skin cancer
What are some of the best tanning products?
Sunlamps and tanning beds promise consumers a bronzed body year-round, but the ultraviolet (UV) radiation from these devices poses serious health risks.
What is a type of ultraviolet ray abbr.?
UVA (ultraviolet A), UVB (ultraviolet B), UVC (ultraviolet C) are types of ultraviolet rays.
What does an ultraviolet telescope collect?
Ultraviolet light. That's why it's called so.
Can scorpions see in ultraviolet light?
No. They can not see in ultraviolet light. They are known to glow when exposed to ultraviolet light, though.
What are the potential health risks associated with exposure to radiation that is not visible to the human eye?
Exposure to non-visible radiation, such as ultraviolet, X-ray, and gamma radiation, can pose health risks including skin damage, increased risk of cancer, and damage to internal organs. It is important to limit exposure to these types of radiation to protect your health.
When was Ultraviolet released?
Ultraviolet was released on 03/03/2006.
What was the Production Budget for Ultraviolet?
The Production Budget for Ultraviolet was $30,000,000.
When was The Ultraviolet Catastrophe created?
The Ultraviolet Catastrophe was created in 1998.
What can ultraviolet kill?
Ultraviolet light can kill microbes or bacteria.
Does earth emit ultraviolet radiation?
The Earth itself does not emit ultraviolet radiation. Ultraviolet radiation primarily comes from the sun, which emits different wavelengths of light including ultraviolet radiation. When the Earth is exposed to sunlight, it can absorb and reflect this ultraviolet radiation.
