An 18-year-old female student, who uses 'anti-radiation lens' bought online, spent 3-6 hours looking at digital screens for her online class with the use of ring light and 2-4 hours for digital leisure every day (as she was confident that her eyes were protected), came, complaining of teary eyes, photophobia (sensitivity to light), eye pain, redness, burning sensation, and blurry vision.

A classic case of UV induced keratitis and Dry eyes, due to too much exposure to lights and digital screens without proper eye protection.

Always wear your prescribed UV and Blue Light Filtering lenses, beware of counterfeited, and online-claimed anti-radiation lenses.
