I'm a fellow Nakedeyechad. Still no blindness. Glassescucks lose again.

nothing happens to you if you look at it, but politicians and scientists and the press don't want you to look at it because it would prove that the moon is flat. they are fearmongering you just to keep you from finding out the truth about their lies

>>16119642
You'll probably be fine if it was very short exposure. Might have welding burn for a bit.

>>16119652
I didn't choose the nakedeye life

Accidentally crept through my glasses while trying to take a picture about a couple hours ago and shot my left eye for like half a second but it still hurts now. I can feel the sensation in the back of my eye socket.

You're fucked.

>>16119739
should i just save myself the suffering and rope?

Why exactly and how is it harmful without glasses?

>>16119642
Light exposure compounds over your life.
So you might be fine for now, but you just significantly increased your risk for a multitude of eye disorders, like cataracts, glaucoma, etc.

>>16119654
This.

>>16119807
what kind of stuff should I avoid so my eyes don't get fucked even more

You can look at the full sun normally for a second on a normal day and nothing will happen. What the fuck is this thread?

>>16119642
I look at the sun every day I drive east to school. You're fine bro.
Richard Feynman looked directly at the Trinity blast and he never lost his eyesight. Prolonged exposure is what fucks you up, any fear mongering besides that fact is built up to sell you a product- might be a necessary product, but a product none-the-less.

Clouds probably saved my eyes and my camera sensors desu

>>16119918
Live permanently in the dark.

>>16119944
Who's the cutie?

>>16119791
You know you can just google that right? The mechanism that causes bright light to damage our retinas is well understood in medicine.

>>16119918
Do you smoke or drink? Start there.

>>16119980
Doesn't matter. She'll be ballooning soon enough if she keeps eating like that.

>>16119940
This. I just glanced at it for less than a second and I'm pretty sure I'll be fine.

>bu bu but muh cataracts
Don't care.

>>16120004
Hahaha, what a chump.

I used to enjoy staring at the sun as a child, after about 10 seconds it starts to look like a really cool shimmering gold coin almost like a hole in reality. Good times

>>16120015
If the sun didn't want us to look at it, then why do eclipses happen? Checkmate liberals.

>>16119642
It's too late for you. The hit squad is already en route.

>>16119791
You CAN look at an eclipse without protection, but ONLY if it's a total eclipse for your location and ONLY if the actual total stage of the eclipse is happening right then. Partial eclipses are danger, as the level of visible light is lowered but the amount of eye-destroying UV light is still present. During a partial eclipse your instinct to look away from the sun won't trigger fast enough before the damage is done.

What the special glasses do is block most of the sun's light, including the UV light. This allows you look at the sun to see a partial eclipse, and to see when the totality stage has begun. If you can't see the sun with the glasses on, you can take them off and look at the total eclipse. It only lasts a few minutes, and if you know the start and end times of totality you can give yourself some buffer room to stop looking at the total eclipse before it becomes a partial eclipse again.

>>16119642
If you didn't have any after images or floaters for more then a few minutes afterwards, other then very slightly increasing your chances of getting a cataract later in life you'll be otherwise fine. If your still having visual distortions by now, then you've likely burned your retina a little, so have fun with 2-4 months of visual fuckery and headaches. Unless you went full retard and stared at it for like 30+ seconds or wore defective glasses though it should clear up eventually.

>>16119642
i looked during totality the whole time for the one in 2017, didnt bother me a bit

as long as you werent retarded and didnt look beforehand or after you should be fine

I stared at it behind sunglasses for a solid 2 minutes during totality. Probably blurred my vision for the next few days but it looked really cool so idc

>>16119944
Feynman looked through a windshield that blocked UV light

>>16120196
>solid 2 minutes during totality
It's safe to look at a total eclipse with the naked eye.

>>16119652
You don't play that virgin & chad meme over your own health dumbass. Your health is too precious to risk with these stupid games.

no sirrie, clean as a whistle
>>16120170
i had a headache and some eye soreness but i'm constantly sleep deprived and a hypochondriac so I'm hoping nothing bad happens. believe me, I've learned my lesson.

>>16120534
your body will degenerate slow if you treat it right, fast it you dont.
That guy that spends 2 millions a year in health treatments says he still ages 7 months a year, biologically

This is also why fake chinkshit ""sunglasses"" are worse than not wearing any at all. You dilate (hue) because your eyes see things as darker, but the UV rays still pass through the fake tint unimpeded and strike an even more exposed retina.

>>16119980
She looks like Anna De Armas

>>16119944
I want to be that donut

>>16120196
I wore my eclipse glasses through totality. It was just 4 minutes of darkness

>>16119642
Exposing the delicate retina of your eyes to the sun even during an ellipse is potentially very hazardous. Suffering a headache afterwards is normal. What you have to look out for now is a "grittiness" feeling in your eyeballs, almost as if you have sand trapped within. That's the real danger sign. That is macula damage and is unfortunately irreversible. If that is happening to you then you have approximately a week before you go completely blind. A secondary effect of this condition is the advent of debilitating migraines that occur on a daily basis. These are special variety of migraines known as solar induced migraines and are a result of over exposure of the optic nerve. I wish I could say otherwise but these are not nice. They usually become very bad, filling one's head with unrelenting almost unbearable sharp pain. Even the most powerful pain killers are ineffective. They can last many hours and leaving the person feeling disorientated and exhausted afterwards. But perhaps worse is their regularity, once you get them they never stop happening. Many people become severely depressed when it becomes apparent that these headaches are never going away and will just become part of their daily routine.

There's literally nothing wrong with looking at the sun. Used to do it all the time as a kid.

>>16119790
Pony content outside mlp is bannable anon...

>>16119790
By all means.

>>16121930
You are wrong about there being no cure. Rubbing bleach into your eyes will immediately solve the problem.

>>16119642
Have you heard of AIDS? Well now you have AeyeDS. Hope it was worth it.

>>16119642
You're probably fine. I should've just looked at it myself with sunglasses or something, I feel like they just wanted to make money with "Eclipse Glasses™"

>>16121930
>"grittiness"
Its just sunburns bro. Get some melanin in your eyes.

>>16119642
I stared at the sun for 20 minutes two years ago because I was depressed and looking for some type of breakthrough. I had blurry vision for some time and thought it was due to the sunstaring, but it was actually due to cognitive exhaustion due to three years of computer programming with barely any vacations.

>>16119739
As a Sun expert I can confirm that, you are fucked OP.

>>16119642
I'm sorry OP but you have AIDS now
that's how it spreads

>>16119642
Looking at the eclipse is no different than just looking at the normal sun during the day. Does anything happen if you look at it for a second? not really

>Partial eclipses are danger, as the level of visible light is lowered but the amount of eye-destroying UV light is still present.
How is this possible? In partial eclipse, smart part of sun is not blocked, from where the light comes. That light contains both visible and UV and everything else. It's not like UV is magically higher than any other region in the em spectrum

>>16119654
Hope u get a tumor

full sun has 10 see-light and 100 hurt-light
slice of sun has 1 see-light and 10 hurt-light

eyes don't automatically close at 1 see-light
eyes get cooked at 10 hurt-light

look at full sun: eyes close
forced to look at full sun: eyes get cooked

look at slice of sun: eyes don't close, eyes get cooked
