Why is it dangerous to view a solar eclipse with your naked eyes?

Solar eclipse is just moon coming between sun and earth and its shadow getting cast on earth. Since the sun rays are getting blocked due to the moon, shouldn’t it actually be safer to view it directly as compared to normal sun?

When the Sun emerges you go from low light conditions to very bright light and your pupils are wide open and let a lot of light into your eyes which can damage them.
