Exposing oneself to the midday Sun can be harmful due to the strong UV radiation; limit your time outside. On bright days sunglasses that block both UVA and UVB rays should be worn. A hat with a wide brim is extremely helpful, as it can prevent roughly 50% of UV radiation from reaching the eyes. Foresee this! The reflection from snow can nearly double the intensity of UV radiation from the Sun.
