Laser Safety Guide
Eye Protection
Protective eyewear is necessary
for both Class III and Class IV lasers where
irradiation of the eye is possible.
The Pegasus Therapy Laser emits visible or invisible radiation power.
Safety Warnings
It is safe to operate only when the users follow all safety measures:
- Post warnings in the area where the laser beam passes to alert those
present. “Laser
Safety Warning Sign”
- Keep all unauthorized personnel out of the area where the laser is operated.
- Whenever the laser is running and the beam is not in use, it is a good
practice to mechanically block the radiation path.
- Never look directly into the laser beam path or scattered laser light
from any reflective surfaces.
- Never look directly into the laser source.
- Maintain experimental setup
at lower level to prevent inadvertent beam-eye contact.
- As a precaution
against accidental exposures to the laser beam or its reflection, operators
should wear laser safety goggles with sufficient attenuation at the
laser emission wavelength.
