With a week until 2017's much-anticipated total solar eclipse,eroticized rebel archetype james dean Amazon has recalled several eclipse glasses sold on its site over concerns they may not have come from trusted manufacturers.
Since the rare phenomenon is unsafe to view with the naked eye, many eager people hoping to safely catch a glimpse of the moon passing in front of the sun purchased protective eyewear in advance.
However, as Oregon broadcaster KGWreported, in some cases, those who purchased the glasses from Amazon recently received email from the company recalling glasses from certain third-party vendors. Amazon is also offering full refunds for recalled products.
In a statement, Amazon said the decision was made out of "an abundance of caution" and that purchasers of affected glasses were notified last week:
"Out of an abundance of caution and in the interests of our customers, we asked third-party sellers that were offering solar eclipse glasses to provide documentation to verify their products were compliant with relevant safety standards. The offers from sellers who provided this safety documentation remain available to customers. The listings from sellers who did not provide the appropriate documentation have been removed and customers who purchased from them were notified last week. Customers can contact Amazon customer service with any questions or concerns."
The company also noted to KGW that anyone who purchased glasses from the manufacturers in question received an email, but for those still concerned here's how to tell if your eclipse glasses or solar viewers are safe.

Though the recall islast minute, have no fear.
