TL;DR Summary
The Illinois Department of Health has urged eclipse viewers to check their glasses after a brand was recalled for failing to meet safety standards. The recalled glasses, sold at several stores in Southern Illinois, were listed as "Biniki Solar Eclipse Glasses AAS Approved 2024 – CE & ISO Certified Safe Shades for Direct Sun Viewing." With thousands flocking to Southern Illinois to view the total solar eclipse, it's crucial to use certified eclipse glasses with the ISO designation of 12312-2 to safely watch the event and avoid severe eye injury.
