"Recalled Solar Eclipse Glasses: How to Safely View the Eclipse Without Them"

TL;DR Summary
The Illinois Department of Public Health has issued a warning to check solar eclipse glasses after some were recalled for potentially not meeting safety standards. The recalled glasses, sold through Amazon and various Southern Illinois retail establishments, are labeled as "EN ISO 12312-1:2022" instead of the proper safety designation of 12312-2. People are urged not to use these glasses to view the upcoming solar eclipse on April 8.
