This European Standard specifies safety and performance requirements regarding the in-water behaviour of Buoyant aids for swimming instruction according to prEN 13138 -1:2018. It specifies in-water test methods based on the application of test manikin as well as on human test subjects.
This document applies only in connection with prEN 13138-1:2018.

This International Standard applies to all eye protectors intended for eye protection against hazards during the
sports of Squash, Racquetball and Squash 57 and sports with similar hazards and no greater risks.
It deals with materials, construction, optical properties, testing, labelling and marking.
It applies to eye protectors that incorporate prescription lenses, but not to eye protectors designed for use
over spectacles.
Requirements for the marking of eye protectors and for information to be supplied by the manufacturer are
also specified.
Information on the selection and use of eye protectors for Squash, Racquetball and Squash 57 is given in
Annex A.
This International Standard does not apply to:
a. sports eye protectors designed for use over prescription spectacles;
b. eye protectors for occupational applications;
c. eye protectors without lenses;
d. eye protectors for sports where the hazards are unrelated to the hazards in or involve greater risks
than Squash, Racquetball and Squash 57.

This document specifies additional requirements for mesh protectors designed to provide protection
for the eyes and faces of persons against mechanical hazards such as impacts from flying particles and
fragments.
The other applicable requirements for mesh protectors and the frames/mountings to which they are
intended to be fitted are given in ISO 16321-1.
This document specifies materials, design, performance requirements, and marking requirements for
mesh protectors that are different from and/or supplement ISO 16321-1.
This document is not applicable to protectors for use against liquid splash (including molten metal), hot
solid risks, electrical hazards, infrared and ultraviolet radiation. For protection against these hazards
suitable additional or alternative protectors according ISO 16321-1 will be needed.
Mesh protectors for use in sports such as fencing are excluded.

This document specifies general requirements for operators' eye protectors for intense light source (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 3000 nm, with the exception of laser radiation.
This document is applicable to devices intended for patient protection during ILS procedures except for treatment in periorbital area. For the selection and use of suitable patient eyewear during ILS procedure see ISO/DTR 22463.
This document does not apply to:
- laser protectors, for which ISO 19818 applies;
- protectors for medically prescribed applications (not occupational); e.g. eye protection for severe dry eye, tints prescribed for medical conditions;
- sunglasses for general use for which ISO 12312-1 applies;
- protectors used for tanning equipment;
- protectors intended for direct observation of the sun, such as for solar-eclipse viewing for which ISO 12312-2 applies;
- protectors intended to protect against ionizing radiation for which IEC 61331-3 applies.

This document specifies additional requirements for eye and face protectors designed to provide protection
for the eyes and faces of persons against occupational hazards during welding and allied processes, such as
optical radiation, impacts from flying particles and fragments, and hot solids.
This document also applies to those articles of eye- and face-protection used for occupational-type tasks but
not performed as part of an occupation, e.g. "do-it-yourself".
This document specifies materials, design, performance requirements, and marking requirements for
welding protectors which are different from and/or supplement ISO 16321-1.

This International Standard applies to all afocal (plano power) goggles, intended for eye protection against
hazards including ultraviolet and visible solar radiation, rain, snow and wind, during downhill skiing, snowboarding
and other activities with similar hazards and no greater risks.
It deals with materials, construction, optical properties, testing, labelling and marking.
Requirements for the marking of goggles and for information to be supplied by the manufacturer are also
specified.
Information on the selection and use of ski and snow-boarding goggles is given in Annex A.
This International Standard does not apply to:
a) eyewear for protection when operating or travelling on a motorized vehicle;
b) eyewear for protection against radiation from artificial light sources, such as those used in
solaria;
c) eyewear for direct observation of the sun;
d) eye protectors intended for sports with unrelated hazards and risks.

This document specifies general requirements for protectors designed to provide protection for the eyes and
faces of persons against common occupational hazards such as impacts from flying particles and fragments,
optical radiation, dusts, splashing materials, molten metals, heat, flame, hot solids, harmful gases, vapours
and aerosols.
Additional requirements for protectors used during welding and related techniques and for mesh protectors
are given in ISO 16321-2 and ISO 16321-3.
This document applies to all afocal (plano power) and prescription lens protectors and components.
This document also applies to those articles of eye and face protection used for occupational-type tasks but
not performed as part of an occupation, e.g. "do-it-yourself".

ISO/DTR 22463);
— protectors for use during medical or aesthetic applications intense light sources (ILS) for which ISO
12609 series applies;
— protectors intended for direct observation of the sun, such as for solar-eclipse viewing for which
ISO 12312-2 applies;
