Minimize direct exposure to the Sun during midday when its radiation is at its peak. A wide-brim hat offers excellent sun protection for the eyes, ears, face, and neck. Sunglasses with UVA and UVB protection significantly reduce eye damage from sun exposure. Mark this! Snow reflection can nearly double the UV radiation intensity from the Sun.
