Eye-care and astronomy experts are cautioning solar eclipse watchers to protect their eyes with specialized solar filters, handheld solar viewers or eclipse glasses.
People in Canada's eastern provinces and parts of the United States and Mexico will have the chance to witness a rare total solar eclipse on Monday, April 8., and other safe solar viewers, use special filters made of black polymer or aluminized polyester to reduce the intensity of the sunlight. They block virtually all light and are thousands of times darker than regular sunglasses, according to NASA and other astronomy experts.
He says people may want to experiment wearing just eclipse glasses, and not their prescription spectacles, if that makes them more secure on their face. People can put the filters on first before the glasses if it fully covers their eyes better, Nensi says. Nensi says viewing the sun through cameras, telescopes and binoculars can also increase the chance of damaging your eyes because the lens intensifies light rays."Viewing any part of the bright sun through a camera lens, binoculars, or a telescope without a special-purpose solar filter secured over the front of the optics will instantly cause severe eye injury," NASA wrote on its website.
