Not as dark The Indiana Optometric Association warns that serious permanent eye damage can result from directly viewing Monday's solar eclipse. The solar eclipse will be total in Alaska and northern Canada and partial over the contenental United States. In Indiana, the moon will cover about 60 per cent of the sun at about 1 p.m. "Looking directly at even a partial eclipse can result in permanent loss of vision, IOA President Jack Jaffe stated.

ACCORDING TO the IOA indoors and occupied with other activities during the eclipse. Parents can help older children prepare and use one of the indirect projection methods. All youngsters should be cautioned about possible eye damage from the sun's rays.

ALTHOUGH THE association does not favor it, looking tofilm completely overexposed through a double layer of pho-tofilm completely overexposed over its entire surface is a relatively safe method of direct eclipse viewing by adults. However, Dr. Jaffe warned that this method is not completely foolproof. "The safest way to view a aolar eclipse," Dr. Jaffe concluded, "is to wait and see the pictures of it in the newspapers or on television." plest method is a "pinhole camera," made by punching a clean hole in the end of a shoebox with a pin or needle.

Cover the opposite end of the box with white paper. Then point the pinhole toward the sun so that the rays move through the pinhole and project a clearly defined image of the eclipse on the white paper. Another version of the "pinhole camera" uses two pieces of cardboard. The piece with the pinhole can be held on the shoulder while facing away from the sun and eclipse image will be projected on a piece of white cardboard held in front Children's eyes are more easily damaged by the sun's rays than adult eyes. Parents should keep younger children as midnight but pretty darn dark.

The chickens go to roost, the birds are still, the temperature drops." MOVING AT 2,100 miles an hour, Monday's full eclipse will last longest 2 minutes and 36 seconds in a remote region northwest of Hudson Bay and near the Arctic Circle.

Damage is caused by the sun's rays, which burn or coagulate a spot on the retina of the eye, typically at the most important vision point When this happens, a permanent blindspot is created which eliminates the central point of sharp vision. "One of the unfortunate problems in preventing eye damage during an eclipse," Dr.

Jaffe explained, "is that the first symptoms of damage may not appear until several hours or even several days after the eclipse. Since the retina of the eye contains no pain recepters, the victim is unaware of the burning." As a result, he may foolishly continue to watch the eclipse, concluding that no damage has been done since he feels no discomfort at the time. There is almost no safe way to look directly at the sun, according to Jaffe. Sunglasses and smoked glass do not offer sufficient protection. In fact, 40 per cent of those injured during the 1970 eclipse used some type of protective device.

Looking directly at the sun through binoculars, opera glasses, telescopes or camera lenses is extremely risky. INDIRECT PROJECTION Is one way to view the eclipse with relative safety.
