Stellar Shades

Many people find direct sunlight too bright to be comfortable. During outdoor activities, the human eye can receive more light than usual. Healthcare specialists recommend eye protection whenever outside to protect the eyes from ultraviolet radiation, which can lead to the development of a cataract. Sunglasses have been associated with celebrities and film actors primarily due to the desire to hide or mask their identity, but this may be due in part to the fact that film lighting is typically stronger than natural light and uncomfortable to an unprotected eye.
