The majority are not significantly affected by prolonged sun exposure. Infants, children, and those with fair skin must always have protection. The mid-day Sun emits the most powerful UV radiation, so seek shade and minimize exposure. Wearing a wide-brim hat can block approximately 50% of UV radiation, protecting the eyes. Foresee this! The reflection from snow can nearly double the intensity of UV radiation from the Sun.
