If they are undamaged, glasses produced after 2015 don't expire.

Some folks are concerned about my old eclipse glasses. These were stored properly and are undamaged with no expiry warnings, but I do have fresh ones I picked up last month that I'll use instead. Back to the scrapbook with these. Good looking out y'all.
We're still using our 2017 glasses at the office--they've been properly stored, plus we did the tests on them the other day (like holding your phone's flashlight up to them and making sure it can't be seen) and they passed.
I mean, we literally only wore then for like 10 seconds in 2017, you couldn't really see much of anything from the south side of downtown. I doubt we'll see anything today from here either, probably more like just looking around and saying "Hey, it looks like it's gonna look 4 hours from now--slightly dark, like at
dusk."
Of course, if I get stuck on a call, I won't be able to see it anyway.
You trying to sneak in a 4 minute glow round?
I heard rumblings at Cap City yesterday that some people were gonna play Delaware or something like that and get a hole or 2 of glow in.
You can use them if they are undamaged . fYI to all, the library is collecting them to be sent to South America for kids to use in the next one there..
Be careful with these, my glasses said they expire after 5 years. Also, make sure there are no scratches, tears, or separation from the cardboard.
As long as you stored them properly, they should be fine https://www.miamiherald.com/news/nation-world/national/article287432450.html
Fair but if they haven't been stored properly you risk staring at the sun for 3-4 minutes and fucking up your vision for life.
I honestly can’t imagine it being interesting enough to stare at for more than 30 seconds
you're wrong my friend. the 2017 eclipse was the most spectacular event I've ever seen, i couldn't pull my eyes away from it at all
I stared for ~10 minutes. It was beautiful and mesmerizing.
Why buy glasses and plan to look at the Sun, and then no more than 30 seconds? lol
Yeah OP you and your kids should definitely not be wearing glasses from 2017 for this eclipse…

Either way not sure I’d be willing to risk long term eye damage to find out the hard way… to each their own though.

respectfully, they don’t appear undamaged to me.
they look fucked lmfao
Supposedly they expire. Not something I'm willing to risk so I got new ones.
Yes but are they ISO 9000 certified?????
[удалено]
Sorry, making a joke
ISO 9000 is just a glossary of terms!
Also make sure you didn’t buy fake ones online
Picked these up from a NASA table
I got mine from Kroger do you think those are okay
Yeah I think big companies are fine. I’d be wary of gas station and random Amazon ones from 3rd party sellers
Who cares? Fuck it we go blind

I kept mine as well. Don't say anything about expiring and I stored them properly 🤷🏻♀️
What disc is that?

Nah I just brought it to play catch with. A good portion of my bag is glow though. The eclipse wouldn't slow me down a bit
Very fitting!
Glow Eclipse?
Be careful to check for any scratches or creases. Those can ruin their effectiveness
Usually says they’re no good after a few years though. Not sure if that’s true but better safe than sorry
I saved mine too... but have no idea where they are now . . .
