(Salt Lake City, UT) — As Utah residents get ready to view the upcoming annular solar eclipse, experts are warning about the possible risk of eye damage. Unlike the previous eclipse in 2017, the moon won’t fully cover the sun this time, making it dangerous for people to look at the eclipse directly. To reduce the risk of eye damage, viewers should use special eclipse eyeglasses that have lenses designed to protect vision. Experts say not using the glasses can result in permanent vision problems. The eclipse will occur on Saturday, October 14th, with its peak around 10:30 a.m.
