Free eclipse glasses distributed at NY welcome centers and Thruway rest areas for April 8 total solar eclipse.

Free eclipse glasses are now available at select welcome centers and Thruway rest areas across New York state for the April 8 total solar eclipse, including several in the Rochester area. Two pairs per person will be given, while supplies last. The Canadian Association of Optometrists advises that regular sunglasses are not sufficient for protecting eyes from the event and recommends solar eclipse viewers with ISO 12312-2 filters for safe viewing.
