How can a solar eclipse blind you?
That's really scary. What kind of eye protection should you use during a solar eclipse?
The only safe way to view a solar eclipse is with special solar filters or eclipse glasses that meet internationally recognized safety standards. These filters or glasses will block out the harmful rays and allow you to safely view the eclipse without damaging your eyes. Ordinary sunglasses, even those with polarized lenses or UV coatings, are not safe for viewing a solar eclipse.
