Which statement about Florida Spots is correct regarding pet ownership and their exposure?

Pets with Florida Spots, which refer to a particular type of ocular condition associated with exposure to UV light and certain environmental factors, often have a lifestyle that includes both indoor and outdoor activities. This mixed exposure increases their risk of developing these spots, which are typically caused by UV damage rather than being confined to just indoor or outdoor settings.

The correct understanding of the pet’s living situation is critical because pets that are exclusively kept indoors may have lower exposure to the environmental factors that contribute to the development of Florida Spots. Conversely, those that are strictly outdoor pets may have higher exposure to UV light and other environmental irritants leading to similar conditions. Therefore, it's common for pets to be both indoors and outdoors, resulting in varied levels of exposure to the risk factors associated with Florida Spots. This lifestyle choice also allows for interaction with diverse environments, which plays a significant role in their overall eye health.
