[Beep then intro music]
Mom >> Today's a big day
Mom >> And not because I have a huge presentation to prepare for at work.
Mom >> No, that just puts food on the table and a roof over our heads.
Mom >> And who cares about that!
Mom >> No, it's my daughter's first driving lesson.
Mom >> Yikes!
Mom >> Are you ready?
Daughter >> Yes, yes yes yes yes.
Mom >> Aren't you forgetting something?
Daughter >> Moooom, how's everybody going to see me driving if I wear this?
Mom >> Somehow, when I'm driving the car, it's the most embarrassing thing ever.
Mom >> But when she's driving it, she wants to be seen.
Mom >> I can't believe this, but I'm going to quote my own Mother ...
Mom >> Look, if you don't protect your eyes from the sun, you'll go blind.
Daughter >> So?
Mom >> And get wrinkles.
Daughter >> True!
Mom >> Ok, I'm not proud of that, but it sounded good.
Mom >> Can that be so wrong?
Doctor >> Not entirely.
Doctor >> Anyone who spends time in the sun is at risk for eye damage no matter what your
age.
Doctor >> Excessive exposure to the sun's ultraviolet rays damages the eyes the same
way it damages the skin.
Doctor >> Unfortunately for your eyes, wearing a hat or staying in the shade isn't enough.
Doctor >> Because UV rays reflect off various surfaces like water,
Doctor >> sunglasses are the best way to protect yourself and your family.
Doctor >> And UV damage to your eyes is cumulative so it's never to early or to late
Doctor >> to start protecting your eyes from the sun.
Doctor >> When picking out sunglasses, make sure the lenses have 100% UVA and UVB protection
just like sunscreen.
Doctor >> Wearing sunglasses keeps your eyes healthy and you looking good.
Mom >> Would you rather wear mine?
Daughter >> No.
I'm good!
Mom >> Oh.
Me too!
