Eclipse Glasses & Viewers
Looking at the Sun without proper protection can damage your eyes permanently, even during a partial eclipse. Eclipse glasses and solar viewers use a certified filter that cuts sunlight to a safe level for direct viewing. Solar binoculars build the same protection into binoculars for a magnified view of sunspots and the eclipse.
We carry ISO-certified Daystar eclipse glasses, the Baader AstroSolar eclipse viewer, Celestron EclipSmart solar binoculars and Lunt SUNoculars.

- Check certification: Use only viewers certified to ISO 12312-2 for direct viewing.
- Inspect first: Discard glasses with scratches, holes or separated filters.
- Never through optics: Do not look through a telescope, binoculars or camera while wearing eclipse glasses. Use a filter made for that instrument.
- Supervise children: Make sure the glasses fit and stay on while looking at the Sun.
Eclipse Glasses: Frequently Asked Questions
Can I use eclipse glasses with my telescope?
No. Telescopes and binoculars need their own solar filters mounted on the front.
Are solar binoculars safe for children?
Yes, with supervision. The filters are built in, but check them before each use.
Preparing for an eclipse?
Order early. Tell us how many people you are equipping and we will help with the quantity.
