Abstract
Looking directly at the sun can lead to permanent eye injury due to damage of light-sensitive
rod and cone cells within the retina. There are two ways to look at the Sun safely: by
observing the sun directly through a suitable filter, or by projecting the Sun‘s reflection onto a
piece of paper via handmade pinhole camera/ telescope. The present correspondence shows
the specification for the development of an optical instrument for the direct observation of
sun. For this device, commonly available solar control glass plates can be used. The design of
this filter is based on the fact that both visible and UV radiation comply with the law of
Reflection and Refraction of light. As light rays appeared on the glass plate, most of the rays
pass through the glass after refraction. A portion of the incident ray is mirrored and goes out
to the next glass panel, where the same thing is going to happen. Through this way, multiple
glass plates reflect the light ray before diffuse light is received. Owing to the fact that diffuse
reflection is responsible for the ability to see most illuminated objects, we will be able to see
the dull image of sun directly through this filter during the solar eclipse.
