IPL Safety Eyewear

Intense Pulsed Light (IPL) Systems commonly used for cosmetic applications such as hair removal and skin resurfacing present a hazard to the eyes of both operators and patients alike.  We offer a range of options offering protection with the minimum obstruction to the procedures.

 

IPL Operator Eyewear

  IPL Lightspeed – Detects IPL Operation
IPL Operator Eyewear - IPL lightspeed

This eyewear detects the IPL flash and automatically darkens within 1 millisecond thus protecting the eyesight of the operator.

When the IPL is not operating the eyewear provides excellent visibility for the operator. Battery operated.

Style LGF

Style XC

Style SKL

Dark green eyewear for protection against the bright light from IPL systems. The higher the Shade number the greater the protection and the lower the visibility. We recommend Shade 3 or Shade 4 eyewear for the clinician / operator, and Shade 5 eyewear for the patient. However, for treatments carried out on or near the face the IPL-AID or other patient eyewear should be used.

Pictures of the frame styles are shown above. Please note that these indicate the style of frame only and not the darkness of the eyewear which is determined by the Shade number.
