2.5.6 Protective Glasses
All persons inside the laser area (except the patient) must wear protective glasses, according to
EN 207.
Considering the I/R mode the protective glasses for use with the SCHWIND AMARIS laser
systems must meet the following minimum standards:
180-315 IR LB3 (according to EN 207)
WARNING
Risk of eye injury!
Never look directly at the laser beam!
Protective glasses must be worn while in the laser area. Non-observance can
lead to irreversible eye injury.
Make sure that laser protective eyewear is in perfect condition before use and
does not show any indications of damage, such as cracks or scratches in the
lenses.
The operating surgeon may remove the glasses when he looks through the microscope. The
glass optics of the microscope weaken the laser beam so that the necessary protection level is
achieved.
2.5.7 Protective Clothing
Exposure of the skin to direct or indirect radiation has to be avoided. This is achieved e.g. via
wearing of suitable work clothing.
