Medical king Solar Eclipse Glasses AAS Approved 2024 (10 Pack) CE and ISO Certified Safe Shades for Direct Sun Viewing

These worked for the eclipse, yes they are certified, yes they are approved by aliens for looking at the sun. But the best part of buying this was reading all the bad reviews. Someone wrote, and I quote, "Yeah ok, it's supposed to block enough light to be safe to see the eclipse. But I am standing right under my light fixture looking at it and can only see full black". Someone else said they were looking straight at the sun and couldn't see anything (obviously you can). Some wrote these *solar eclipse* glasses are bad because you can't see anything other than a solar eclipse (I particularly love this comment). Many people wrote they "couldn't see anything" without elaborating, and promptly gave 1 star. Some say, without evidence, it's not approved for solar viewing, even though the ISO is for solar viewing and approved by AAS. Or "these are not made for adults" although they were. Some folks are just "not happy", no further comments added. Really good stuff here on Amazon, 5 star for the reviews.

I made sure I did my homework and double checked this manufacturer of these is legitimate and it checks out. They are certified in Europe (Ireland) to conform to proper ISO standards. They are manufactured in China though. I double checked their performance and can say that they do what they claim. 0 light through unless you are looking directly at the sun or at the eclipse. Buy these with confidence.

I was told Medical King was one of the good brands for solar glasses. These were on sale cheap. I drove out to see the April 2024 eclipse. I could see the partial eclipse just fine with these. I didn't get any good pics because my stupid phone wouldn't focus on the sun. I tried with the glasses and again with a welding helmet some guy had. Nothing. But the glasses themselves worked just fine. There were other people there with no prep so I got to be the hero handing out glasses to people. I had plenty. Keep in mind if you see a full solar eclipse like I did, you can take the glasses off at totality. 99% eclipse is kinda boring but 100% totality is mind blowing. As soon as the sun starts showing again, put the glasses back on to view. Or you can do like I did and just leave. I had already been there several hours waiting for totality, so 99% eclipse didn't interest me at all. I won a staring contest with the sun. Did you? I didn't think so. These glasses helped me win. Spain 2026. That's the next one. If you're going try to be in the center of totality. It lasts the longest there. It's worth the extra drive. This is not a "toy" so I'm not answering any toy questions. These glasses are a protection mechanism so you can view an eclipse safely. They fold up to nothing so you have a stack of 10 maybe half an inch thick. Stylized cardboard with plastic lenses. They work. Good good good.

I ordered a pack of 10 of these solar eclipse glasses prior to the April 8, 2024 total solar eclipse. I tested them first by putting them on and then staring at a lamp, which turned out very dim. I tried it on a an aluminum foil plate that reflects sunlight and you could barely see it. Then I tried on the Sun itself and the Sun had a very mild brightness to it that made me comfortable and confirmed that they are not fake or unsafe for use during the eclipse. I was then able to enjoy the full eclipse from 1st contact (C1), up until totality. As you can see, from the above images, I took some decent pictures of some of the various stages of the the long partial phase of the eclipse, leading up to totality. I did this by cutting out one half of one pair of glasses and then taping it to the back of my smartphone so that it covers the phone camera lens as a DIY solar filter. To conclude, I would definitely recommend these solar eclipse glasses and I forgot to mention that delivery was earlier than expected as I ordered them on a Saturday night, they were originally supposed to arrive by the following Wednesday but instead, I got them delivered on Monday afternoon, not even two days later!

Meets current standards and kept the whole families eyes safe! Will be saving for the next eclipse! I have a pretty large head and they still fit on me over top of my glasses.
