A total eclipse is the stage when the moon completely obscures the sun.<\/p>\n<p><iframe title=\"Why looking directly at a solar eclipse is so dangerous for your eyes\" width=\"500\" height=\"281\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/BouOAEzwpBc?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>The total eclipse lasts only between one to three minutes depending on the geographical location, and the sunlight can suddenly reappear as the moon continues to move.<\/p>\n<p>The cones of the human eye&#8217;s retina are highly sensitive to light. During daylight conditions, the iris contracts so that only a small and safe amount of light passes through the lens to reach the retina.<\/p>\n<p>Since the sun&#8217;s disc is extremely bright, any small part of its light can damage the eye if looked at directly, according to NASA.<\/p>\n<p>It is known that when looking directly at the sun, the pupil of the eye contracts involuntarily, protecting both the cornea and the retina.<\/p>\n<p>But in the case of an eclipse, this constriction does not occur, and the eye absorbs ultraviolet rays from the sun, which pass through the moon&#8217;s shadow without us noticing, thus causing damage.<\/p>\n<p>The cones of the retina are the light-receiving cells in the retina that work effectively in bright light conditions and help perceive colors, while the iris is the blue or brown area surrounding the pupil.<\/p>\n<h3>Risks of looking at the sun during an eclipse<\/h3>\n<p>Jason B. Brenton, an eye doctor and medical director at Brenton Vision in St. Louis, United States, said in an interview with CBS that looking at the sun &#8211; even when it is covered as during an eclipse &#8211; can cause eye damage.<\/p>\n<p>Yahya Hashad, a retina specialist and medical director of Bush Lomb Eye Health, said there is no &#8220;safe dose&#8221; of solar ultraviolet or infrared radiation.<\/p>\n<p>He added that &#8220;a very small dose of those rays can cause harm to some people,&#8221; explaining that this risk is what prompted specialists to recommend wearing protective glasses during the eclipse.<\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\">\n<p dir=\"rtl\" lang=\"ar\">\ud83d\udd34 \u0643\u0633\u0648\u0641 \u0627\u0644\u0634\u0645\u0633 \u0641\u0648\u0642 \u0623\u0645\u0631\u064a\u0643\u0627 \u0627\u0644\u0648\u0633\u0637\u0649 <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/yUS4ljuUoJ\">pic.twitter.com\/yUS4ljuUoJ<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 \u0627\u0644\u0635\u064a\u0646 \u0628\u0627\u0644\u0639\u0631\u0628\u064a\u0629 (@mog_china) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/mog_china\/status\/1777430907307130977?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 8, 2024<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script><\/p>\n<h3>Total solar eclipse<\/h3>\n<p>Millions around the world followed on Monday a total solar eclipse witnessed by several countries, especially in the Americas.<\/p>\n<p>NASA said live on air that millions gathered in squares to watch the rare event announced earlier.<\/p>\n<p>With the passage of the total solar eclipse path over the central region of the United States, the moon completely obscured the sun over the cities of Indianapolis, Cleveland, and Buffalo<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full text-token-text-primary\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-6\">\n<div class=\"px-4 py-2 justify-center text-base md:gap-6 m-auto\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-1 text-base mx-auto gap-3 juice:gap-4 juice:md:gap-6 md:px-5 lg:px-1 xl:px-5 md:max-w-3xl lg:max-w-[40rem] xl:max-w-[48rem] group\">\n<div class=\"relative flex w-full flex-col\">\n<div class=\"flex-col gap-1 md:gap-3\">\n<div class=\"mt-1 flex gap-3 empty:hidden juice:justify-end\">\n<div class=\"text-gray-400 flex self-end lg:self-center items-center justify-center lg:justify-start mt-0 -ml-1 h-7 gap-[2px] visible\">\n<div class=\"flex items-center gap-1.5 text-xs\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"w-full text-token-text-primary\" dir=\"auto\" data-testid=\"conversation-turn-7\">\n<div class=\"px-4 py-2 justify-center text-base md:gap-6 m-auto\">\n<div class=\"flex flex-1 text-base mx-auto gap-3 juice:gap-4 juice:md:gap-6 md:px-5 lg:px-1 xl:px-5 md:max-w-3xl lg:max-w-[40rem] xl:max-w-[48rem] group final-completion\">\n<div class=\"flex-shrink-0 flex flex-col relative items-end\">\n<div>\n<div class=\"pt-0.5\">\n<div class=\"gizmo-shadow-stroke flex h-6 w-6 items-center justify-center overflow-hidden rounded-full\">\n<div class=\"relative p-1 rounded-sm h-9 w-9 text-white flex items-center justify-center\"><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Watan-Millions around the world witnessed a total solar eclipse in several countries, especially in the Americas, without being recorded in Arab countries.
