My optometrist recommended special sunglasses for coverage and protection of my eyes—in light of my skin cancer issues. I always wear them when I am outside.
Maui Jim is supposed to have good coverage. I’m not sure how attractive, but I feel like they work. 
What about regular checks with an optometrist or ophthalmologist? Does that seem warranted? I see the optometrist every year, but I don’t know if she’s checking for that. I’ll call today and ask. Thanks. So glad you promoted me to ask! I go to the optometrist yearly but she does not screen for cancer. Good to know that! I will be setting that up elsewhere ASAP. Knowledge is vital.
