Introduction

This family of documents was developed in response to the worldwide stakeholders' demand for

minimum requirements and test methods for eye and face protectors traded internationally. ISO 4007

gives the terms and definitions for all the various product types. The test methods are in the ISO 18526

series, while the requirements for occupational eye and face protectors are in the ISO 16321 series. Eye

protection for specific sports is mostly dealt with by the ISO 18527 series. A guidance document for the

selection, use and maintenance of eye and face protectors is in preparation.

For the purposes of this document, “protector” is used as a synonym for spectacles, goggles, face shields

and eye guards used for eye and/or face protection.
4 General requirements for protectors
4.1 Ambient temperatures

The protectors described in this document are intended for use at normal ambient temperatures

(23 ± 5) °C. Where critical aspects of protection are likely to be affected by temperatures towards

the extremes of the normal range of occupational environments (from -5 °C to +55 °C), physical and

mechanical requirements are included (sometimes optionally) to ensure protection is not compromised.

Physical and mechanical requirements are provided for validation of claims for protection at extremes

of temperature.
4.2 Physiological compatibility

Protectors shall be designed and manufactured in such a way that, when used under the conditions and

for the purposes intended, they will not compromise the health or safety of the wearer. The risks posed

by substances from the protector that can come into prolonged contact with the wearer, shall be reduced

1) Under preparation (Stage at the time of publication ISO/DIS 18526-1)
2) Under preparation (Stage at the time of publication ISO/DIS 18526-2)
3) Under preparation (Stage at the time of publication ISO/DIS 18526-3)

by the manufacturer to within the limits of any existing regulatory requirement. Special attention shall

be given to substances which are allergenic, carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to reproduction.

NOTE 1 Excessive pressure due to a poor fit on the face, chemical irritation or allergy is known to produce

reactions.. Rare or idiosyncratic reactions to any material are known to occur and the individual wearer is well

advised to avoid those types of frame materials.

Substances recommended for cleaning, maintenance or disinfection shall be known to be unlikely to

have any adverse effect upon the wearer, when applied in accordance with the instructions given in the

information to be supplied by the manufacturer.

Manufacturers/ suppliers shall provide appropriate information on potential harmful characteristics

of materials contained in the protector.

a) specification of the material(s);
b) safety data sheets relating to the materials;

c) information relating to the suitability of the materials for use with food, in medical devices, or

other relevant applications;

d) information relating to toxicological, allergenic, carcinogenic, toxic to reproduction, or mutagenic

investigations on the materials.

NOTE 2 Specific national regulations with regard to restriction of certain chemical substances should be

observed, for example release of nickel in Europe.
4.3 Construction and adjustment

Protectors shall be free from projections, sharp edges or other features likely to cause discomfort or

injury during use.

Any part of the protector that can be adjusted, or removed by the wearer for the purpose of replacement

(in accordance with the instructions given in the information to be supplied by the manufacturer ),

shall be designed and manufactured to facilitate adjustment, removal and attachment without the use

of tools.

Any adjustment system incorporated in the protector shall be designed and manufactured to maintain

the intended fit for the foreseeable conditions of use.

The test shall be carried out by physical inspection according to ISO 18526-3: —, 6.1.

4.4 Cleaning and disinfection

The procedure for cleaning and disinfection, as described in the information to be supplied by the

manufacturer, shall not impair the performance of the protectors. All the tests shall be carried out after

subjecting the protector to the cleaning and/or disinfection procedures according to the information to

be supplied by the manufacturer.
4.5 Headforms

Unless the manufacturer specifies the headforms according to ISO 18526-4 that are compatible with

the protector, the test methods where headforms are required shall use the headform 1-M according to

ISO 18526-4 as the default.
