One can burn holes in one’s retinas. This leads to permanent blind spots. ¡Noting like irreversible partial blindness! One should never look directly at the Sun.
Because the UV-Light of the Sun causes cataracts after a few decades, one should wear sunglasses outside blocking 100% of UV-Light. As well as blocking 100% of UV-Light, sunglasses should also be polarized:
Bouncing off of surfaces shifts the polarization of light. As a result, reflected glare has a pretty much horizontal polarization if it reflects off of an horizontal surface. Polarized sunglasses reduce glare by about 90%.
