A member asked:
I viewed a dim, setting sun through binoculars for 10-20 seconds. 3 hours have passed and my eyes feel ok, but i'm worried. could i develop problems?

Hmmm...: A person could develop problems from worrying too much. If the sun was so dim that it did not cause visual changes for more than a few seconds after looking at it, then no worries.
