    To continue to raise public awareness about the danger of UV rays and the importance of protecting the eyes, Essilor has launched an interactive online game available on Essilor.com and the Group’s Facebook page.

    Chris, please tell me why eyes need to be protected from UV rays, aside from the fact that this line of thinking is a cash cow for optical business. I'm asking for your personal observations and thoughts, not a reiteration of the common group-think. Thanks.

    Just an off the wall comment, but most of the eyes I have replaced for cancer were lost in early infancy to retinitus blastoma. These people had usually never been in the Sun and those that had, not much.
