No! This does not filter the damaging rays and will still permanently damage your sight even to the extent of blindness.
Definitely not. Observing the Sun can be dangerous if you do not take the proper precautions. Even the highest safety category 4 sunglasses are not designed to be used to view the sun directly. Exposure to UV radiation from looking directly at the sun can cause retinal burns which can be painful and can cause loss of vision. You could end up with permanent eye damage and/or visual loss.

No, it is not safe to look directly at the sun even while wearing sunglasses. Sunglasses are not designed to protect your eyes from staring at the sun, and doing so can still cause damage to your eyes. It is best to use proper solar viewing equipment if you want to observe the sun.

∙ 12y agoNOT ordinary sun glasses, and especially NOT for the annular eclipse May 20. You must not look at the eclipse directly; a great deal of solar energy will be focused along the path and even if it appears that there is a dimming of light, looking at the annular eclipse will expose your eyes to enough radiation to cause serious damage, including permanent blindness.
