The Effects of Bright Light

The bright light from the sun and other high intensity lighting can cause eye damage especially Ultraviolet "U. V." rays.

 Exposure to the eyes magnified by glass, just about any light can inflame the white part of the eyeball called the sclera (say: sklair-uh). This type of eye injury can usually be treated with basic lubricating eye drops or anti-inflammatory drops, and will require a few days for recovery.
 This is mild compared with the more serious conditions from gazing directly into high intensity discharge lighting, or the sun. Severe damage to the retina, known as solar retinopathy, causes instant and permanent vision loss and in most cases blindness. Most of us know better than to stare at the sun or bright lights but children, especially babies are at high risk of what doctors refer to as "sun gazing". All the more reason to use window tinting to shade glass, and protect your eyes from damaging light.

 The long term effects of daily susceptibility to bright light are often overlooked or seen as "a sign of old age", even though bad eyesight is a known symptom of chronic exposure to intense light. Most often preventative measures can be taken such as shades and window tinting. 

 Only window tinting however can reduce the risks of light exposure without reducing visibility.
