Foreword
ISO (the International Organization for Standardization) is a worldwide federation of national standards
bodies (ISO member bodies). The work of preparing International Standards is normally carried out
through ISO technical committees. Each member body interested in a subject for which a technical
committee has been established has the right to be represented on that committee. International
organizations, governmental and non-governmental, in liaison with ISO, also take part in the work.
ISO collaborates closely with the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) on all matters of
electrotechnical standardization.
The procedures used to develop this document and those intended for its further maintenance are
described in the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 1. In particular, the different approval criteria needed for the
different types of ISO documents should be noted. This document was drafted in accordance with the

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

Eye and face protection for occupational use —
Part 1:
General requirements
1 Scope
This document specifies general requirements for eye and face protectors. These protectors are
intended 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 eye and face 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) and prescription lens protectors and components.
This document also applies to those products 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 does not apply to:
— Protectors specifically intended for protection against sunlight for which ISO 12312 series applies;
— protectors for medically prescribed applications (not occupational); e.g. eye protection for severe
dry eye, tints prescribed for medical conditions;
— protectors intended to control exposure of the eyes of patients during diagnosis or treatment (e.g.
ISO/DTR 22463);
— protectors for use during medical or e.g. aesthetic applications, e.g. intense light sources (ILS) for
which ISO 12609 series applies;
— protectors specifically intended for sports for which ISO 18527 series applies;
— laser protectors for which ISO 19818 applies;
— face protectors intended for live-working to protect against short-circuit electric arcs for which
IEC 62819 applies;
— protectors intended to protect against ionizing radiation, e.g. X-rays, for which IEC 61331-3 applies.

— IEC Electropedia: available at http:// www .electropedia .org/
— ISO Online browsing platform: available at http:// www .iso .org/ obp.
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)
4) Under preparation (Stage at the time of publication ISO/DIS 18526-4)

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.
The following are examples of documents that can be provided:
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.
