Bresser Solar Eclipse glasses - safe solar observation
A solar eclipse is one of the most breathtaking natural phenomena you can witness - but protecting your eyesight during observation is absolutely critical. Bresser Solar Eclipse glasses are designed precisely for these moments: they allow you to safely watch total, annular and partial solar eclipses, planetary transits and sunspots without any risk of eye damage. Made in the USA and compliant with the strictest international safety standards, these glasses offer protection you can genuinely rely on.
Baader film - natural and accurate solar image
The glasses are equipped with a special Baader film that reduces solar radiation intensity by 100,000x while effectively filtering out both UV and IR radiation. The result is a natural, bright yellow image of the Sun free from color aberrations or distracting artifacts - exactly what an experienced observer expects. The sturdy cardboard frame ensures long-term durability and allows repeated use, so these glasses will serve you not just for one event, but for many astronomical occasions to come.
Ready to use straight out of the box
Unlike some other solar glasses that require you to manually insert a filter film into a frame, these glasses come fully assembled and ready to use immediately. You save time and avoid any potential errors during assembly - something you will particularly appreciate when observing conditions change quickly or when you are using the glasses directly in the field.
Certified protection - tested in independent laboratories
The glasses comply with EN ISO 12312-2:2015 for direct solar observation and have been independently tested by ICS INC laboratories. This is a guarantee that eye protection is not a matter of marketing claims but of verified laboratory results. They are ideal for visual observation of eclipses, larger sunspots or rare moments when an aircraft passes in front of the Sun.
Important safety instructions
Please read and follow all safety guidelines before use:
- These glasses are intended exclusively for direct visual observation of the Sun with the naked eye.
- Do not use in combination with any optical instruments - telescopes, binoculars, cameras or other devices - doing so may cause irreversible eye damage.
- Do not observe the Sun continuously for more than 3 minutes at a time.
- Before each use, inspect the filter film carefully for any damage such as tears or holes. Do not use damaged glasses.
- Not suitable for unsupervised use by children - adult supervision and instruction are required.
- Do not use after eye surgery or if you have an active eye infection.
