TL;DR Summary

Experts recommend wearing shades of red and green to enhance the viewing experience of the April 8 solar eclipse, as the human eye becomes more sensitive to cooler colors during low light, known as the Purkinje Effect. These colors will appear more vibrant as the eclipse nears totality, while warmer colors like red and orange will lose vibrancy. It's advised to avoid neutral colors like black, white, gray, and brown, as they may blend into the eclipse's shadow and miss out on the color transformation.
