Important Warning: We do not recommend purchasing eclipse glasses on Amazon, eBay, Temu, or any other online or storefront marketplace. There have been reports of unreputable or damaged glasses from online retailers seriously injuring the eyes of both adults and children in the 2017 and previous eclipse. The glasses provided or sold by the Hillsboro Chamber and the City of Hillsboro are certified by the American Astronomical Society, and have the ISO 12312-2 certification.
*** Not all glasses and retailers that say they are ISO certified, have tested as truly being ISO 12312-2 compliant. *** Our source was recommended by the AAS.
Eyesight for children and adults should last a lifetime
