Eclipse Glasses Sold Out UK | Glasgow News

Don’t look directly at the sun during Wednesday’s rare solar eclipse — it could blind you. With nearly all of the sun disappearing and the UK’s best view since 1999, demand for certified eclipse glasses is skyrocketing. Stores are sold out, online orders won’t arrive in time, and even major chains like Specsavers are skipping stock for sustainability reasons. Some shops, like Jessops, have “sold out everywhere” signs. But there’s hope: DIY pinhole projectors using colanders can safely show the eclipse. Always check for the ISO 12312-2 safety mark and inspect old glasses for damage. Museums and opticians are seeing huge crowds — this is a once-in-a-generation event, and safety is non-negotiable.
