• Use Eclipse glasses!
  Make sure yours are ISO 12312-2 compliant and CE certified that filter out 100% of harmful ultra-violet and infrared rays and 99.999% of intense visible light. Beware the cheap knock offs! Your eyes are too valuable. You should NOT be able to see anything through the glasses except for the very center of a bright flashlight held right up to  a lens.
