    My eyes hurt, and I had eclipse glasses, and a solar filter on my telescope. Lots of these are probably just eyestrain.

      Same here, followed proper procedure and was extra careful to have them on as soon as totality came to an end. My eyes felt strained after I googled to see if I needed to be concerned.

      Most of the glasses say not to use them for longer than 3-5 minutes total over the course of the eclipse. So if people were sitting there staring at it for the entire event with the glasses on, their eyes going to hurt.

      Just a thing to note, some glasses ship with warnings to only look at the sun with the glasses on for a few minutes or less. The sun is very bright.
