Solar Eclipse Glasses Safety

Looking directly at the Sun without certified eclipse glasses or viewers can result in permanent eye damage. Only view the Sun through proper solar eclipse safety gear, like ISO 12312-2 certified eclipse glasses or viewers that meet international safety standards.

During a total eclipse, it's safe to look at the Sun only during the short totality phase. Ensure your eclipse glasses are undamaged and follow all safety instructions. Supervise children closely when using eclipse safety gear.
