A: Yes, you can use this shade 12 lens.  According to NASA, a shade 12 is sufficient to look at the sun.  Be careful though, it may be too bright for some people.  Source: https://eclipse2017.nasa.gov/safety (scroll down to the section "Viewing with Protection")

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great quality GLASS lens meets ANSI specs.
*by F***X on December 2, 2025*

The lens it's self is 5 stars however I gave it 4 for Amazon's pathetic way to package a GLASS lens! First one came shattered in one hundred pieces as it was only in a paper envelope! Second one made it in one piece but it was in a minimally padded envelope.
