Please Listen - Important Information Regarding the Solar Eclipse

Fortunately, I happened to go to the eye doctor last week for an eye exam.  While there, I said I know we are not supposed to look at the eclipse without the special glasses, but I can glance at it, right?

 

He said "Definitely, NO".  Do not even glance at it! 

The retina feels no pain.  People will not realize they have done any damage until it's too late.

He said that even though, here in Florida, we will not see the whole thing, but just a crescent shape - that crescent shape will be burned into your retina.

He said he is expecting to see lots of people with problems, (in his office) a day or two after the solar eclipse.

 

I did not hear such dire warnings on TV, although they did say not to try to take pictures with your phone because it will ruin the lens.

I know that the schools here are taking extra precautions and not letting the kids out for gym or sports.  Some schools are keeping the kids until after the total eclipse is over.

 

BE CAREFUL, EVERYBODY!

Looked at one some 40 years ago

 

sounds like a dare again

 

thanks for reminder

 

no doubt I will take a little look

going blind anyways

When I was in junior high about 40 years ago I looked for just a quick second also to see the eclipse. The recommended punched hole in the paper just wasn't working for me. That Crescent shape figure that I now see reminds me of that kidding guess I got lucky.

I think it's all a conspiracy theory, they don't want you to look up at the solar eclipse because Trump is launching missiles or doing something terribly bad at the same time as the eclipse, that's what I hear on the liberal media stations.
