So I bought a pack of glasses off of Amazon a few weeks ago. I made sure they were listed as adhering to the ISO standard before buying, confirmed the ISO logo and # on the glasses themselves once they arrived, and then proceeded to try them out and observe the sun a bit. That evening I then saw an article along these lines about fake glasses flooding Amazon. Curious, I checked my purchase history and the listing had been removed entirely.
so now I'm super worried that I A) Stared into the sun for like 10-15 minutes with sketchy glasses and B) will not be able to use these on Monday. Probably gonna run to Lowes and buy a pair or two there, since I can be reasonably sure they're safe.
- paxy 9y agoThere is no way I'm ever staring directly at the (full, non-eclipsed) sun for 15 minutes, no matter how good the glasses claim to be.

- toxican 9y agoI'm way out of the path of totality and I live in a small town, I should be ok. But we'll see. Failing that I'll just make a pin hole viewer.
