本欧洲标准适用于用于防止意外暴露于EN 60825-1:2007中规定的180 nm（0,18μm）至1 000μm光谱范围内的防护眼镜。它定义了要求，测试方法和标记。附件B中给出了选择和使用激光眼睛保护器的指南。 本欧洲标准不适用于有意接触激光辐射的保护器。 EN 208适用于激光调节眼保护器。 在根据本欧洲标准选择眼睛防护之前，应首先进行风险评估（见附件B）

This European Standard applies 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 µm) to 1 000 µm. It defines the requirements, test methods and marking. A guide is given in Annex B for the selection and use of laser eye protectors. This European Standard does not apply to protectors for intentional exposure to laser radiation. EN 208 applies for laser adjustment eye-protectors. Before selecting eye protection according to this European Standard, a risk assessment should first be undertaken (see Annex B).
