Eye and face protection - Test methods - Part 1: Geometrical optical properties (ISO 18526-1:2020)

This document specifies the reference test methods for determining the spherical, cylindrical, prismatic
refractive properties of afocal unmounted lenses and the spherical, cylindrical and prism imbalance for afocal
mounted lenses of protectors.
This document does not apply to any eye and face protection requirement standards which refer to other test
method standards.
Other test methods may be used if shown to be equivalent.

Augen- und Gesichtsschutz - Prüfverfahren - Teil 1: Geometrisch optische Eigenschaften (ISO 18526-1:2020)

Dieses Dokument legt die Referenzprüfverfahren zur Bestimmung der sphärischen, zylindrischen und prismatischen Brechkrafteigenschaften von nicht eingearbeiteten und eingearbeiteten Plan-Sichtscheiben (Sichtscheiben ohne Korrektionswirkung) für Augen- und Gesichtsschutzgeräte fest.
Dieses Dokument gilt nicht für etwaige Anforderungsnormen für Augen- und Gesichtsschutzprodukte, für die andere Prüfverfahren festgelegt sind.
Andere Prüfverfahren können angewendet werden, sofern ihre Gleichwertigkeit nachgewiesen ist und ihre Präzision die vom Referenzverfahren geforderte nicht übersteigt.

Protection des yeux et du visage - Méthodes d'essai - Partie 1: Propriétés optiques géométriques (ISO 18526-1:2020)

Le présent document spécifie les méthodes d'essai de référence pour la détermination des propriétés de puissance optique sphérique, cylindrique et prismatique des verres plans montés et non montés (verres non correcteurs) pour la protection de l'œil et du visage.
Le présent document ne s'applique à aucune norme d'exigences produit relatives à la protection des yeux et du visage pour laquelle d'autres méthodes d'essai sont spécifiées.
D'autres méthodes d'essai peuvent être utilisées à condition que leur équivalence ait été démontrée et si les incertitudes de mesure qui leur sont associées n'excèdent pas celles exigées par la méthode de référence.

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).

Introduction
The family of documents comprised of the ISO 16321 series, the ISO 18526 series and the ISO 18527
series 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 given in the ISO 18526 series, while
the requirements for occupational eye and face protectors are given in the ISO 16321 series. Eye
protectors for specific sports are mostly dealt with by the ISO 18527 series. A guidance document,
ISO 19734, for the selection, use and maintenance of eye and face protectors is under preparation.

Eye and face protection — Test methods —
Part 1:
Geometrical optical properties
1 Scope
This document specifies the reference test methods for determining the spherical, cylindrical, and
prismatic refractive power properties of unmounted and mounted plano lenses (non-corrective lenses)
for eye and face protectors.
This document does not apply to any eye and face protection product requirement standards for which
other test methods are specified.
Other test methods can be used provided they have been shown to be equivalent and include
uncertainties of measurement no greater than those required by the reference method.
2 Normative references
The following documents are referred to in the text in such a way that some or all of their content
constitutes requirements of this document. For dated references, only the edition cited applies. For
undated references, the latest edition of the referenced document (including any amendments) applies.

3 Terms and definitions
For the purposes of this document, the terms and definitions given in ISO 4007 apply.

4 Preparatory information
Before testing, refer to the appropriate product's requirements standard for the information needed to
apply the tests in this document, for example:
1)
— the number of test samples ;
— preparation of test samples;
— the selection of test samples (if included in this document);
1) For the purpose of this document, “test sample” is taken to be the object under test, e.g. “lens”, “filter” or
“complete protector” as specified in the requirement standards.
