How a Solar Eclipse Can Damage Your Eyes? | Why You Shouldn’t Look Directly? |
















       A solar eclipse occurs when the moon moves between the Sun and Earth partially and completely blocking the Sun's light resulting in a partial total or anular Eclipse but as mesmerizing as these events are looking at the sun without proper protection can cause serious even permanent eye damage let's find out why you see on a normal sunny day when you happen to glance at the sun your pupil shrink in response to the brightness limiting the amount of harmful light entering your eyes but during an eclipse the dimmed sunlight tricks your brain into keeping your pupils wide open the sun may look safer to observe but the danger is still there yes even though the sun seems less intense the harmful ultraviolet UI and infrared IR radiation it emits never stops with your pupils wide open this powerful invisible energy enters your eyes unchecked putting your vision at serious risk but why is this so dangerous well once inside the eye the lens focuses incoming light onto the retina the delicate tissue at the back of the eye responsible for vision this is where the real damage happens much like a magnifying glass concentrating sunlight onto a piece of paper the eyes lens directs the Sun Ray onto a single spot generating intense Heat this exposure can cause photochemical toxicity where high energy UV light triggers destructive chemical reactions that damage the retina's rods and cones the cells responsible for processing images at the same time infrared radiation contributes to Thermal Burns essentially cooking the retina from within but what makes it even worse is that the retina has no pain sensors so you won't feel the damage happening but hours or even Days Later vision problems may appear ranging from mild blurriness to severe impairment and the worst part retinal cells don't regener generate unlike a sunburned layer of skin that eventually heals once the retina is damaged the effects are often permanent many people who have stared at a solar eclipse without protection develop blind spots blurry vision or permanent distortions in their sight while some mild cases improve over time in many instances the damage lasts a lifetime with no medical treatment to reverse it but does this mean you have to miss out on witnessing one of Nature's most magnificent events not at all you just need to take the right precautions yes special eclipse glasses certified to block harmful radiation are the safest way to watch without risking your eyesight if you don't have those you can use a pinle projector a simple device that lets you observe the eclipse in directly even watching a live stream from a space agency allows you to experience the event without putting your vision in danger by taking the right precautions you can enjoy the cosmic spectacles safely ensuring that your eyes remain healthy for all the other incredible sites the universe has to offer trivia time did you know the maximum number of solar eclipses partial anular or total that can occur in a single year is five on the other hand the minimum number of solar eclipses per year is two meaning that at least two solar eclipses happen somewhere on Earth.
