ISO 12609-1:2013 pdf download.Eyewear for protection against intense light sources used on humans and animals for cosmetic and medical applications一Part 1:Specification for products.
This part of Iso 12609 specifies performance and labelling of eye protectors used for ILS equipment used on humans and animals for cosmetic and medical applications against excessive exposure to optical radiation in the spectral range 250 nm to 3 000 nm, with the exception of laser radiation.
This part of ISO 12609 provides a specification for an eye protector expected to cope with the majority of applications. A more rigorous procedure for determining appropriate eye protection against spectral outputs from ILS equipment is described in the annexes.
This part of ISO 12609 is not applicable to eye protectors for use with tanning equipment, ophthalmic instruments or other medical/cosmetic devices, the safety issues of which are addressed through other European and International standards.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the following terms and definitions apply.
3.1
blue light hazard
potential for a photochemically induced retinal injury resulting from optical radiation exposure in the wavelength range 300 nm to 700 nm
3.2
filter protection factor
FPF
factor by which the filter attenuates the weighted ocular exposure
Note 1 to entry: Mathematical expressions for FPF are given in Annex A and example calculations in Annex B and Annex C.
3.3
infra-red lens hazard
potential for a thermal injury to cornea and lens of the eye resulting from optical radiation exposure in the wavelength range 780 nm to 3 000 nm
3.4
intense light source
ILS
device incorporating one or more non-laser sources of optical radiation of the wavelength range 250 nm to 3 000 nm and intended for creating biological effects in humans and animals
Note 1 to entry: It can operate in a continuous or pulsed regime.
3.5
retinal thermal hazard
potential for a thermal retinal injury resulting from optical radiation exposure in the wavelength range
380 nm to 1400 nm
3.6
ultraviolet hazard
potential for skin and ocular acute and chronic adverse effects resulting from optical radiation exposure in the wavelength range 250 nm to 400 nm
4 Transmittance
4.1 General
The spectral transmittance of the ILS eye protector at the wavelengths between 250 nm and 3 000 nm shall be specified.
