Be careful when purchasing solar eclipse glassesThe American Astronomical Society was careful not to list Amazon or eBay as marketplaces on their list of manufacturers.When making this list, we made sure to cross-reference the solar eclipse glasses we found on Amazon with the list of manufacturers listed on the society’s website. Why was this done? According to the society, sites like Amazon and other online marketplaces had numerous sellers of eclipse glasses and other solar viewers that had not been properly tested and shown to be safe. Because improper viewing of an eclipse can cause permanent eye damage, it’s critical that you’re not just purchasing any solar eclipse glasses or solar viewers. The American Astronomical Society recommends if you are purchasing from Amazon and other online marketplaces that you can see the seller is identified on the site and that the seller is listed on their full page. One more warning: NASA doesn’t approve or endorse any productDon’t be fooled by a product description or product title that mentions that their solar eclipse glasses are “approved by NASA.” According to NASA’s website, they do not issue approvals for merchandise, and they do not promote or endorse products because they are a U.S. government agency. The use of terms like “NASA approved” or “official NASA” is actually prohibited. Click here to view the full list of safe solar filters and viewers.
