[HIGHLIGHTS] Sino-Singapore Health | How can tourists prevent “snow blindness” during ice and snow tours? Experts say this

"Snow blindness" is a "common disease" among tourists in cold winter areas. Excessive ultraviolet rays can cause eye problems.

Symptoms include stinging, congestion, edema, burning sensation, photophobia, and tearing of the eyes. People or outdoor skiing and skating athletes need to wear sunglasses or protective goggles to effectively isolate excessive ultraviolet rays in the environment. For people who wear contact lenses daily, taking off contact lenses in time is also crucial to reduce the harm of the disease.
