UNE explains what not to do during the eclipse: Look during partial phases, use sunglasses or damaged filters

The Spanish Association for Standardization (UNE) has issued safety guidelines regarding the solar eclipse occurring in Spain on Wednesday, August 12. The organization emphasizes the necessity of using specialized eye protection for safe observation, warning against looking directly at the sun during partial phases of the eclipse.

Furthermore, the UNE advises against the use of standard sunglasses or damaged filters, noting that such items do not provide adequate protection against solar radiation. These recommendations are intended to prevent ocular damage during the celestial event.
