The only safe way to look directly at the sun is through special-purpose solar filters, according to the American Academy of Ophthalmology.

A solar eclipse occurs when a portion of the Earth is engulfed in a shadow cast by the Moon which fully or partially blocks sunlight.
This occurs when the Sun, Moon, and Earth are aligned. Such alignment coincides with a new moon indicating the Moon is closest to the ecliptic plane.
Following precautions, we should take to see the eclipse:
- Do not use homemade filters or ordinary sunglasses.
- Do not look at an eclipse through an unfiltered camera viewfinder, telescope, binoculars, or another optical device even with a solar filter.
- Those items magnify sunrays and can quickly damage the retina.
- Employees and students cannot use building roofs for viewing.
- Always inspect your solar filter before use if scratched or damaged, discard it.
- Always supervise children using solar filters.
- Stand still and cover your eyes with your eclipse glasses or solar viewer before looking up at the bright sun.
