Tonight Health Reporter Stephanie Stahl is again explaining the potential danger, and how to tell the difference between safe and fake. There is a way to tell the difference, shiny metal looking coating on the outside , the fakes can be black on both sides. Those could be frying your retina, or frying your eyeball thats where the damage occurs, right in the center of the vision, and if youre looking with both ties will curve both eyes, which is a big problem. Doctor jacker dugan, wills eye hospital, saying staring at the sun without filtration even partially obscured can cause vision lost. The high energy gets focused in the retina, and it causes inflammation, edema, it is actually called an objection dating process, where you create free radicals that damage surrounding tissue nasa sending the alert about fake glasses says another way to tell the difference is, you cant see anything when you wear the real ones, except the sun. Put them over the led. You see nothing. Now, well take one from an unknown vendor, and put them over the led. You can see the led lights, so this is immediate indication that these glasses are not safe. Now, it is also important that the lentz z are not scratched or damaged in anyway that could increase the risk for injury. Doctors say wearing certified glasses is the only safe way to look at the sun to watch the eclipse. But if people are having trouble or worried about these glasses you could always watch on tv. Have plenty of safe coverage for you. Thats true, make it easy on ourselves, all right, stephanie, thank you. Now, glasses are popular but so are other types of solar souvenirs, the city of st.
