    Abstract - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    Pertains to eye-protectors used for protection against accidental exposure to laser radiation as defined in EN 60825-1:2007 in the spectral range 180 nm (0,18 [mu]m) to 1000 [mu]m.

    Scope - (Show below) - (Hide below)

    This European Standard applies to eye-protectors used for protection against accidental exposure to laser radiation as defined in EN60825‑1:2007 in the spectral range 180nm (0,18µm) to 1000µm. It defines the requirements, test methods and marking. A guide is given in the informative AnnexB for the selection and use of laser eye-protectors and filters in appliances. This European Standard does not apply to protectors for intentional exposure to laser radiation. EN208 applies for laser adjustment eye-protectors. Before selecting eye protection according to this European Standard, a risk assessment should first be undertaken (see AnnexB).
