Default Eye problems from flameworking -ptygerium

Hi.
I have got an eye condition caused by too much UV light.
It is quite nasty (try to google it) and when it grows it can only be operated.

I have only used didymium shades while working by my torch (a minor). It always looks worse after flameworking, but then goes down a bit after a couple of weeks.

Has anyone else had the same problem?
And what did you do?
Do I need better glasses, that also blocks UV light? And which would that be?

I havent been to a proper eye doctor yet, but I will.
I hope I can continue to work by the torch.
