Explain to my son that it’s safe for your eyes to play soccer during sunsets.

855 viewsOtherPhysics

My ten years old got into soccer recently and he’s getting good at it, except, he has this paranoia that he’ll get blind (or will have severe eye damage) if he traces the ball through the air against a sunny backdrop. Because of this he won’t practice in the evening and this is when most training happens.

We had an eclipse recently and I think he took the “don’t look at the sun” mantra way too far and I don’t know how to undo that.

Please help!!!

Is giving him sunglasses not an option? Like he’s not right but he’s not wrong, either. Give him sunglasses with a sports strap to keep them on his head.
