Evaluation of light transmission characteristics of protective eyeglasses for visible light-curing units
Journal of the American Dental Association (1939)
|November 1, 1986
Abstract:
Eyeglasses with protective filters are recommended for users of visible light-curing units to decrease the intensity of blue light reaching the eyes. The transmission curves of 20 commercially available filter glasses are obtained. The irradiance from eight curing units through these glasses is measured. The reduction in irradiance through the filter glasses is related to the transmission curves.
