The upcoming Solar Eclipse will happen April 8th and our region is one of the prime viewing areas for this event. Ahead of this, we spoke with Optometrist Markus Minder about the dos and don’ts when it comes to your vision. Minder says don’t trust buying special glasses online.
The messages about vision impairment are not a lie.
If you experience certain symptoms after the eclipse, to get your eyes checked right away.
Minder also says to get the ISO 12312-2 approved glasses, which are the safe filter for eclipse viewing. A reminder that there will be a viewing event at Joel Stone Park in Gananoque.
