How to safely watch the solar eclipse

You never want to look directly at the sun during an eclipse without eye protection. That includes looking at the sun through a camera lens, binoculars or telescope without a special-purpose solar filter, according to NASA. Looking at an annular solar eclipse without proper eyewear could instantly cause severe eye injuries. 

To look at a partial or annular solar eclipse, you must do so with safe solar viewing glasses or eclipse glasses. These are not regular sunglasses, no matter how dark they are, NASA said.
