Laserproofs
Laserproofs are a type of specialized eyewear designed to protect the wearer's eyes from laser light. Unlike regular sunglasses, which primarily filter visible light and offer some UV protection, laserproofs are engineered to block specific wavelengths of laser radiation. The effectiveness of laserproof eyewear is determined by its optical density (OD) at particular laser wavelengths. Optical density is a logarithmic measure of how much light is absorbed or reflected by a filter. A higher OD value indicates greater protection.
The construction of laserproofs typically involves tinted polycarbonate or plastic lenses that are infused with materials
Applications for laserproof eyewear are diverse. They are essential for professionals working with lasers, such as
