Eye doc here, do me a favor and just don't stare at the sun.

During the last eclipse rush, the market was loaded with gray-market/fake-certified glasses. The American Astronomical Society publishes a list of certified vendors and vetted retailers for eclipse glasses.

So the question for you is - is it worth risking your permanent vision quality to save $5 from some random Amazon 3rd-party seller? Personally, I'd stick with B&H.

Correcting, there's a misconception that eclipses are particularly harmful, as if the light is worse than regular sunlight. That's not the case, the issue is that people are more apt to look/stare.

Welding glass/helmet/goggles works as well.

Are Daystar and American Paper optics both approved for solar eclipse?

Is one better than the other?

As someone who experienced the total eclipse in 2017, it is an experience I will always remember. Sadly we can't see it this year, and it will be even better than the 2017.

Just to clear up something that an eye doc said, you CAN look directly at the total eclipse when it is in totality. Believe me, you will know when that happens. (You MUST be in the area that has the total eclipse, not partial).

Quote :
During the few minutes of totality, when the moon is fully blocking the sun, it is safe to look at the total solar eclipse with the naked eye, but eclipse glasses should be used at all other times to look at the sun
https://www.nbcnews.com/science/s...rcna139582

If you own a DSLR camera, you can buy a filter for it to be able to take pictures while eye protection is needed. We had the filter and the pictures came out great.

A partial eclipse is like landing in a plane. A total eclipse is like sky diving. Well worth the effort to see it.

Warning to everyone!

Did I Miss

There are thousands and thousands of Fake Solar eclipse glasses online that claim to be iso and ce certified that simply arent. Unless you know the company manufacturing them and that it is 100% legit, don't risk damaging peoples eyes by purchasing possible fakes.
(Not referring to this specific deal as I have not purchased these to check authenticity of any claims. Just please be careful!)

Looks like the total solar eclipse graphic ones dropped to $6 and the solar eclipse graphic ones dropped to $7. Both still have free shipping. I guess I should of waited to order.

here's a question, do binocs with poor transmission work to block enough of the rays or do they need to be fitted with filters? Do triple stacked sunglasses work?

Quote from TheAppleRider :
Okay, but does anyone actually care about the eclipse because I sure don't. All I hear about is people telling me that everyone cares, but I haven't had a single person come up to me and tell me how excited they are about the eclipse. This honestly just seems like some sort of big oil marketing ploy to sell more gas vehicles if you ask me.
I understand we're in a day and age of conspiracy theories getting dumber and dumber, but what were you going for with this one? Usually with a conspiracy theory, you need a little element of truth involved to make it sound believable.
