Watching the solar eclipse tonight? Its important to do so safely.

Make sure you know the do’s and don’ts.
✅ DO use proper certified eclipse glasses (we don't sell these) designed for solar viewing.
✅ DO use a safe indirect viewing method, such as a pinhole projector.
✅ DO make sure children are supervised when watching the eclipse.

❌ DON’T look directly at the sun even for a few seconds.
❌ DON’T use normal sunglasses. They do not provide enough protection for eclipse viewing.
❌ DON’T look through cameras, binoculars or telescopes unless they have the correct specialist solar filter.

Solar retinal damage can be permanent, so always put eye safety first.

Enjoy the eclipse safely protect your eyes so you can enjoy every view after it.
