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

editorial rules of the ISO/IEC Directives, Part 2 (see www .iso .org/ directives).

Attention is drawn to the possibility that some of the elements of this document may be the subject of

patent rights. ISO shall not be held responsible for identifying any or all such patent rights. Details of

any patent rights identified during the development of the document will be in the Introduction and/or

on the ISO list of patent declarations received (see www .iso .org/ patents).

Any trade name used in this document is information given for the convenience of users and does not

constitute an endorsement.

electro-optical sunglare filter
electro-optical sunglass filter

filter that varies, by electro-optical means, its luminous transmittance depending upon the irradiance

and wavelengths of the radiation to which it is exposed or under manual control

Note 1 to entry: The change may be under fully automatic or fully manual control, or under a combination, for

example where the luminous transmittance in the faded and darkened states is set manually, variation between

them automatically. The luminous transmittance of the filter therefore adjusts itself within certain limits to the

ambient radiant flux.

4 Construction and materials
4.1 Construction

When tested in accordance with ISO 12311:2013, Clause 6, areas of the sunglass, including the frame

and, if in a rimless or semi-rimless style, the edges of the filters that may come into contact with the

wearer during intended use shall be smooth and without sharp projections.

NOTE Manufacturers should restrict the range of screw sizes and threads used in sunglass frames to those

specified in ISO 11381:2016 Optics and optical instruments – Ophthalmic optics – Screw threads.

4.2 Filter material and surface quality

When tested in accordance with ISO 12311:2013, 6.2, except in a marginal area 5 mm wide, sunglass

filters shall have no material or machining defects within an area of 30 mm diameter centred on the

reference point that might impair vision, e.g. bubbles, scratches, inclusions, dull spots, pitting, mould

marks, notches, reinforced areas, specks, beads, water specks, pocking, gas inclusions, splintering,

cracks, polishing defects or undulations. If a 5 mm wide portion around the edge of the test sample

intrudes into this circular area, then this intrusion shall be excluded from testing.

4.3 Physiological compatibility

Sunglasses shall be designed manufactured and packaged in such way that, when used under normal

conditions they will not compromise the health or safety of the wearer. The risks posed by substances

leaking or evaporating from the sunglasses that can come into prolonged contact with the wearer, shall

be reduced by the manufacturer to within the limit of any applicable regulatory requirement.

Special attention shall be given to substances that are allergenic, carcinogenic, mutagenic or toxic to

reproduction.

NOTE 1 Excessive pressure due to a poor fit on the head, chemical irritation and allergy are known to produce

reactions. Rare or idiosyncratic reactions to any material 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 perform an appropriate risk analysis on potentially harmful substances

contained in the sunglasses that, when the sunglasses are used under normal conditions, the health

(and safety) of the wearer shall not be compromised.

The following are examples of documents that represent the appropriate information.

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 Attention is drawn to specific national regulations that restrict chemical substances, e.g. ISO 12870,

4.2.3 for nickel release test methods and requirements.

4.4 Headforms

Unless the manufacturer specifies the headform(s) in accordance with ISO 18526-4:2020 that is/are

compatible with the sunglasses, the test methods where (a) headform(s) is/are required shall use the

headform 1-M in accordance with ISO 18526-4:2020 as the default.
5 Transmittance
5.1 Test methods

Transmittance values shall be determined in accordance with ISO 12311:2013, Clause 7. If the direction

of measurement is not specified, then it shall be measured normal to the surface of the test sample at

the geometrical centre.
5.2 Transmittance and filter categories

Sunglass filters for general use shall be assigned to one of five filter categories based on the luminous

transmittance at their reference point.

The range of the luminous transmittance of these five categories is given by the values in Table 1. An

overlap of the transmittance values shall be not more than ± 2 % (absolute) between adjacent categories

0, 1, 2 and 3. There is no overlap in transmittance values between categories 3 and 4.

The maximum deviation for the declared luminous transmittance value shall be ± 3 % absolute for

the transmittance values falling in categories 0 to 3 and ± 30 % relative to the stated value for the

transmittance values falling in category 4.

For gradient-tinted and/or mirrored filters, the maximum deviation for the declared luminous

transmittance value shall be double that for uniformly tinted lenses.

When describing the transmittance properties of photochromic filters, two categories for transmittance

values are generally used. These two values correspond to the faded state and to the darkened state of

the filter.

In the case of gradient-tinted filters, the transmittance value at the reference point shall be used to

characterize the luminous transmittance and the category of the filter.

For gradient-tinted filters, the overlap in luminous transmittance allowed between categories shall be

double that for uniformly tinted filters.

Table 1 also specifies the UV requirements for sunglass filters for general use and, when the filters are

claimed by the manufacturer to protect against IR radiation, the IR requirements.

Optics and photonics — Spectral bands.

Only applicable to sunglass filters recommended by the manufacturer as a protection against infrared radiation.

5.3 General transmittance requirements
5.3.1 Uniformity of luminous transmittance

The relative difference in the luminous transmittance value between any two points of the filter within

a circle 30 mm in diameter centred on the reference point shall not be greater than 15 % (relative to

the higher value), except for category 4 where it shall not be greater than 20 %. If a 5 mm wide portion

around the edge of the test sample intrudes into this circular area, then this intrusion shall be excluded

from testing

The geometric or boxed centre takes the place of the reference point if this is not known.

In the case of mounted gradient filters, this requirement shall be limited to sections parallel to the line

connecting the two reference points.

For mounted filters, the relative difference between the luminous transmittance value of the filters at

the reference point for the right and left eyes shall not exceed 20 % for gradient-tinted filters and 15%

for all other types (relative to the lighter filter).

Changes of luminous transmittance that are caused by thickness variations due to the design of the

filter are permitted. For verification, the test method in ISO 12311:2013, Annex L shall be used.
