What is photokeratitis?

Here is another link to our Eye Health page which even has a picture of photokeratitis.

• Keratitis – Symptoms include intense pain and difficulty in opening the eyes. Fixed, prolonged exposure to the sun (for instance sunbathing) heats up and completely dries the eye and causes serious problems to the epithelial cells.

If you think this has happened to you, seek medical advice as soon as you can. Never leave any problems with our eyes they are too important to take risks with, seek advice from medical professionals, don’t delay.
