Please help check it out.
NEVER look through a telescope or binoculars, or any optical aide or device that magnifies an image, at the Sun or a Solar Eclipse; this would cause PERMANENT BLINDNESS INSTANTLY!
What is "optical aide"? Could someone give more examples? |

An optical aid is any device that helps vision or helps see tings better. Spectacles are also optical aids. _________________ Centennial College Rocks! |

Thanks for your help.
So, it should be an optical "aid", not an optical "aide"? |

| Yeah, an aide is a person who acts as an assistant. |
