Apparently only a small percentage of Australians are aware of the long term damage from the sun to their eyes, according to a survey conducted by Optometrists. Over 30 percent of Australians over 55 have cataracts. Almost all Australians are aware of the damage to their skin and people are generally pretty good about protecting themselves. Since I moved to Australia a few years ago, I am often surprised by how many people my age and younger have had melanomas removed. It is very real. Growing up in Scotland, sun damage and related cancers were not high on the medical agenda. Here in Adelaide, you only have to be out for a few hours to get burned badly. Time to Slip Slap Slop and get your hat (and sunnies) on. It wont be long before it will be too dangerous to go out without full body cover. I wonder if dogs get sunburn?
