On Saturday, October 14th, a partial eclipse will be visible in the area beginning roughly at 1130 a.m. The University of Pikeville's Kentucky College of Optometry is doing their part to inform the public about safe ways to view the celestial event. The college will also be using the eclipse as a learning tool both in and out of the classroom. So the 14th at approximately 1130 to 130 is the viewing time for this area of the country and it will be roughly a 40% eclipse of the sun. And so here at the Kentucky College of Optometry we are all about eyes and eyes safety and so we hope to provide folks with some information about how they can protect themselves when they're viewing this event. We incorporated in the sense of explaining to folks about filters, about how filters work and the density of certain filters and how they would protect their patients, their future patients from that. And also we want to use it as an opportunity to provide public service announcements to protect patients and instruct them on how to safely view the event. Because the moon partially obscures the view of the sun, any light shining through is magnified and can cause eye damage. Luckily there are a few tools that can be used to observe it. If you're going to view it directly, then you need some kind of eye protection that you would wear, okay? And it needs to be approved, have an ISO certification on it, okay? So that these are approved for viewing events such as this. So if you're going to directly view it, you know, then you're going to place glasses on like this and so that you can view the event. If you're going to use something else, a camera, telescope, binoculars, it needs to have the appropriate filters. There's also another way that can be done with like a pinhole, like a pinhole box. And folks can Google that, you can make them pretty easily even in your backyard to be able to view the event through a pinhole box. But the crucial thing is never to view the event directly with no protection. Reporting from Outantop News, I'm Nick Collum.
