12. Eye Safety

- The International Electrical Commission (IEC) published in 2006 IEC 62471

”2006 Photobiological safety oflamps and lamp systems” which includes LEDs within its scope.

When sorting single LEDs according to IEC 62471, most LEDs can be classified as belonging to

either Exempt Group or Risk Group 1.

- Optical characteristics of LEDs such as radiant flux, spectrum and light distribution are factors

that affect the risk group determination of the LED, and especially a high-power LED,

that emits light containing blue wavelengths, may have properties equivalent to those of Risk Group 2.

- Great care should be taken when directly viewing an LED that is driven at high current,

has multiple uses as a module or when focusing the light with optical instruments,

as these actions may greatly increase the hazard to your eyes.

- In addition, LED sources that were included within the scope of IEC 60825-1 /

Edition 1.2 “laser safety standard”, published 2001 were removed from the scope of

the IEC 60825-1 / Edition 2.0 revised 2007.

- However, keep in mind that some countries and regions have adopted standards based

on the IEC laser safety standard IEC 60825-1:2001 which includes LEDs within its scope.
