Sudden temperature changes between air-conditioned environments (around 25°C) and outdoor heat (around 40°C) can cause eye discomfort such as watering, redness, and itchiness, which can be managed with eye drops; UV protection through sunglasses is essential for anyone spending more than 2-3 hours daily in sunlight, as UV exposure can lead to pterygiums, early cataracts, and age-related macular degeneration; swimming goggles improve underwater visibility but do not provide UV protection, and after swimming in chlorinated pools, rinsing eyes with fresh water and using lubricating drops if needed can help maintain eye comfort.

Summer Eye Care Tips ( Part 2 ) | AC, Heat & UV Protection Explained by Dr Jay GoyalAdded:
So, when you are in the AC, the temperature and humidity [music] is controlled. But, when you step out, it is very hot. It may be humid, also. This sudden [music] changes in temperature and humidity cause your eyes to water or become red or you may feel itchy or something. [music] That's absolutely normal. So, we suggest not to make a huge temperature shift.
[music] So, if the AC is on 25, that's fine. But, if AC is on 20 and then you step out in 40, that is when you may have issues. [music] So, yes, it does cause issues, but they can be managed with drops. That is uh not a problem.
>> [music] >> UV protection is very important. Anybody who is out should wear sunglasses [music] which are UV uh protective. They not only help you protect against sunlight, they [music] also help you protect against dust. Also, sunlight has been known to cause pterygiums, early cataracts, ARMDs. [music] That's all because of UV light. So, I suggest everybody who's in the sunlight for more [music] than 2 to 3 hours a day, you should wear UV protective goggles.
So, goggles in swimming actually help [music] you see underwater much better.
They have no other protective value.
[music] So, yes, wearing swimming goggles is a good idea. But, most swimming pools have [music] too much of chlorine. So, once you are out, you can wash your eyes with fresh water. You can take a shower. And if you feel dryness, [music] you can use some drops. But, no, there is no restriction. Swim, do whatever you want.
