摘要：AbstractBecause incomplete confirmation is available concerning the influential role of atmosphere contamination on conjunctivitis, myopia, asthma, and allergic rhinitis in Brazil, the focus of the present work is to explore the possible relations among atmosphere contamination and eye problems. Rather that a case study on eye diseases, by way of questionnaires supplemented by the investigation of nanoparticles (NPs) on eyeglasses, the study examines the mechanisms in which NPs and ultra-fine particles are deposited on the glasses of children up to 10 years of age in urban and rural area. The important connection between atmosphere contaminants and individual protection equipment justifies improving indoor school properties in order could protect children's eyes, particularly in high-pollution/high-particulate areas.Graphical abstractDisplay OmittedHighlights•Nanoparticles disturbed both by regional discharge and transferred particulate matter.•Exposure to air pollutants increases the risk of eye problems.•The influence of atmospheric contamination on eye problems intensified in the cold seasons.
