My eye is dialted, is it necessary to wear sunglasses or not?


a few months ago my eye got dilated due to injury and its still dialted. i went to the doctor about it and she said if it didnt go back to normal in a period of time it was supposed to stay like this forever. i'm going to go get it checked out again in a few days but in the meantime i might be outside a lot, would it cause any damage to it if i didnt wear sunglasses?

I'm not an expert but I think the sun could damage your eye. Since more light is being let in than normal, you should wear sunglasses.

WEAR SUNGLASSES, IT'S FOR THE BEST FOR YOUR EYE. YOU ONLY HAVE 2 SO TAKE CARE OF THEM.

You really should wear sun glasses because your retina is open and you can burn your inside of your eye very easily.
