Direct Sun exposure should be minimized especially during midday when radiation is most intense. 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. On your guard! Snow's reflection can almost double the intensity of the Sun's UV radiation.
