Solar eclipse glasses (Sofi glasses) made from sturdy cardboard with a high-quality, certified solar filter for safe eye protection when observing the sun directly.

Solar eclipse over Europe!

Our solar eclipse glasses are the ideal choice for anyone who wants to observe the sun safely. Even though several solar eclipses take place every year, from Europe they are often only visible as partial eclipses. Another eclipse highlight is on the horizon in 2027: on 2 August 2027, a solar eclipse will be visible across Europe, particularly in southern Spain. And from Germany, it will at least be partially visible – with the Moon covering approximately 30–60 per cent of the Sun.

Reliable protection

Our solar eclipse glasses bear the CE mark and comply with the EN ISO 12312-2:2015 standard for eye safety during direct observation of the Sun. They utilise the AstroSolar® Silver/Gold film (Made in Germany) from Baader-Planetarium, which has been tried and tested millions of times and reduces sunlight by 99.999 per cent. This provides reliable protection against UV and IR radiation and allows you to look directly at the Sun safely.
