GREENWOOD, IN, 2/27/2024 — VisionQuest Eyecare is excited to announce a special event that promises to bring the Indianapolis community together for an educational and awe-inspiring experience. From 2 p.m. to 4 p.m. April 8, VisionQuest will host a solar eclipse viewing party at both its Greenwood and McCordsville locations. This family-friendly event is designed to provide a safe and informative viewing experience of the solar eclipse, a rare astronomical event.
"We are thrilled to host this viewing party for the solar eclipse,” said Dr. Christopher Browning, O.D., co-owner of VisionQuest Eyecare. “It's a wonderful opportunity for the community to come together and witness one of nature's most spectacular phenomena. Our team is excited to share this experience and provide educational insights about the eclipse and eye safety."
The party will feature special viewing glasses that can be used to safely watch the eclipse. These glasses, which cost just $1, also serve as guests’ RSVP for the event. VisionQuest Eyecare emphasizes the importance of protecting one's eyes during a solar eclipse, as looking directly at the sun without proper protection can cause serious eye damage. The specially designed glasses will be available for purchase starting March 18 at both VisionQuest locations, and a purchase will reserve a spot for the viewing party.
"This event is a rare opportunity for individuals and families to safely see a solar eclipse and learn more about this incredible celestial event," said Dr. Browning. "We're committed to making this experience not only safe but also educational. Our staff will be on hand to answer questions and provide information on how solar eclipses occur and the importance of eye protection."
The solar eclipse viewing party is part of VisionQuest Eyecare's ongoing commitment to community engagement and education. By hosting events like this, VisionQuest aims to foster a sense of wonder and curiosity about the natural world, while also highlighting the importance of eye health and safety.
Attendees are encouraged to arrive early to secure their viewing glasses and find the perfect spot to watch the eclipse. The event will take place outdoors, with staff members guiding guests on how to use their eclipse glasses correctly. In addition to viewing the eclipse, participants will have the opportunity to learn more about eye health, the science behind solar eclipses and their effects on our eyes, and the range of services offered by VisionQuest Eyecare.
