UV light problems: Ultraviolet light is a non-ionizing radiation
and is divided into UV-A (315 to 400 nm), UV-B (280 to 314 nm), and
UV-C (180 to 280 nm). The Earth’s atmosphere absorbs all UV-C radiation
and more than 99% of UV-B radiation. It is known that the quantity of UV
light increases with increasing altitude at a rate of 4% for each 300 m
ascent), low latitude, and in highly reflective environments. The reflection of ultraviolet increases two times from the surface of water and eight times from snow when compared to the reflection from a field of grass and it could damage to almost all eye tissues (eye lids, cornea, conjunctiva and lens)
