Everyone's freaking out about the eclipse giving them headaches

Following the eclipse, Google searches for things like "solar eclipse headache," "seeing spots," and "eyes hurt" all spiked.

All these searches are coming out of North America, aka eclipse central.

It's been made crystal clear by professionals, scientists, and of course, concerned parents, that you are under no circumstances supposed to look at the sun mid-eclipse with your naked eye. In fact, even glancing at it for a few seconds during a partial phase could cause eye damage.

That's a pretty terrifying warning, so it makes sense that even after viewing the eclipse with proper protective eyewear, people are concern

At around 3:00 p.m. ET, many eclipse viewers were concerned they had accidentally looked at the eclipse and many were inquiring about eclipse-related headaches.
