Abstract
The application of sunscreen is a key pillar of photoprotection; however, there is a growing concern regarding the impact on the environment of ultraviolet filters in sunscreen products. With growing interest in environmental issues, it is important that we are able to discuss these topics with our patients.

We conclude that although Irish dermatologists routinely recommend the use of sunscreens to patients there is a lack of knowledge regarding the environmental impact of sunscreens.
