Solar Eclipse Safety - Don't Trust Your Eyes To Any Brand Of Solar Glasses!

The Solar Safe film used in the Celestron EclipSmart™ product line has been independently tested by a third-party lab and conforms to the ISO 12312-2:2015(E): Filters for Direct Observation of the Sun international safety standard. When buying solar glasses, you should always check your glasses before every use, making sure there is no damage, tears, punctures, or lens separation from the frames. If any of these are present, do not use and discard your glasses. You should never observe the Sun without ISO-compliant eye protection. Looking at the Sun with the naked eye or non-filtered optics can result in permanent and irreversible eye damage. The Celestron EclipSmart™ brand is built on safety and quality. The Solar Safe film is produced in the United States from a supplier recommended by both NASA and the American Astronomical Society. This film filters out harmful solar radiation, such as IR and UV light, as well as 99.999% of visible light, resulting in views of the Sun in the visible (white light) spectrum. Celestron has also added an orange tint to provide a more natural and comfortable view. It’s crucial to note that you should never use the Celestron EclipSmart™ Solar Glasses with any magnifying optical device, such as a telescope or binoculars.
