Résumé :	[BDSP. Notice produite par INIST LR0x1r7Y. Diffusion soumise à autorisation]. Looking at the sun can cause focal burns to the retina. We prospectively followed up all patients who presented to Eye Casualty of Leicester Royal Infirmary having observed the solar eclipse of August, 1999. 45 patients attended, of whom 20 had visual symptoms and five had visible changes in the retina ; four patients were still symptomatic after 7 months.
