Dry and Irritated Eyes
The cold months make both indoor and outdoor air dry. When the air has less moisture, your skin and eyes are more likely to become dry. Dry indoor air and outdoor air can also cause irritated eyes.
Sun Sensitive Eyes
Cold months increase dependence on artificial lights. When exposed to these lights for long periods, you can develop sun-sensitive eyes. Sun-sensitive eyes can also be caused by snow and ice. The reason: they reflect between 50 to 90 % of sunlight.
Blurred Vision
Low humidity affects blood vessels that carry blood to the eyes. When there is decreased blood flow to the eyes, you will likely experience blurred and even double vision. The good news is that all winter-related eye problems are reversible. Always avoid the risk factors and check out with your healthcare provider to maintain healthy eyes throughout winter.
