Home Remedies For Sun Blindness
Sun blindness is caused by exposure to large expanses of snow or ice for a considerable length of time.
- Make a poultice from the lightly beaten white of an egg. Bandage the poultice on the closed eyes and sleep that way. There should be a big improvement the next morning. Cottage cheese in place of egg white is also effective.
CAUTION: Sun blindness is a serious condition that can lead to cataracts and retinal damage. It should be prevented by wearing sunglasses or goggles.
Preventing Sun Blindness
- Skiers find this remedy helpful in coping with large expanses of snow. Eat a handful of sunflower seeds every day. (Buy them shelled, raw and unsalted.)
Within no time, the eyes may have a much easier time adjusting to the brightness of the snow, thanks to the sunflower seeds. . . and a good pair of sunglasses or goggles.
