The Glacier's So Bright, I Gotta Wear Shades |
You won’t soon forget Chile's spectacular glaciers—provided, of course, that you can actually see them! On a glacier sightseeing trip, sunglasses (or their brawnier cousins, glacier glasses) are an absolute must. Even on cloudy days, up to 90% of UVB rays can be reflected off the ice and straight into your eyes. If you would prefer to avoid days of pain, redness, swelling, and endless pirate jokes about your taped-shut eyelids, remember to bring a decent pair of sunglasses. The best pairs have dark lenses, prove 100% UVB protection, and cover your eyes completely.
