Laser Safety Glasses

Choosing laser safety glasses is essential for protecting your eyes during laser procedures. Here’s how to pick the right ones in a bit more detail:

1. Find Laser Wavelength and OD Level: Begin by checking your laser’s user manual or the label on the laser device to find out its wavelength (measured in nanometers) and the Optical Density (OD) level you need. The OD level tells you how much the glasses will reduce the laser’s power to keep your eyes safe.
2. Select the Right Filter with High VLT: Next, you must choose glasses with a filter matching the wavelength and OD level you found. It’s also important to pick a filter with a high Visible Light Transmission (VLT). This means that the filter lets through a lot of visible light, allowing you to see clearly what you are working on. This is especially important if you need to be able to see fine details during laser procedures.
3. Choose a Comfortable and Protective Frame: Lastly, thinking about the glasses’ frame is essential. You want a frame that fits well and feels comfortable, especially if you wear them for a long time. Consider frames that wrap around your eyes for better protection, as they can keep lasers from coming in from the sides. Adjustable features like bendable temples or nose pads can help make the glasses more comfortable.
4. Check for Standards and Certification: As an additional step, it’s good to check if the glasses meet any safety standards. This gives you extra confidence that they will protect your eyes.

In summary, finding the right laser safety glasses involves:

• Knowing your laser’s wavelength and required OD level.
• Selecting a filter with a high VLT for clear visibility.
• Choosing a comfortable frame that provides good coverage.

It’s a small investment in time to ensure your safety while using lasers.

At Attenutech, we are dedicated to ensuring that our laser safety glasses adhere to the highest safety standards. Our laser safety glasses comply with ANSI Z87.1 and ANSI Z136 standards.

ANSI Z87.1 is the American standard that sets forth criteria for personal occupational and educational eye and face protection devices, ensuring that the glasses are adequately impact-resistant and provide the necessary protection.

ANSI Z136, on the other hand, is the standard for the safe use of lasers, ensuring that our glasses are optimized for laser protection, considering factors such as optical density and wavelength coverage.

In addition to the ANSI standards, we recognize the need to cater to our international customers. Therefore, some of our filters are CE certified for sale in Europe. These CE-certified filters comply with European safety standards, ensuring quality and safety for users within the European market. Products that are CE certified have a clear indication on the product page, allowing customers to identify and choose glasses that meet European safety requirements easily.
