The current situation of domestic protective glasses and the development trend in the next six months

China enjoys the title of "the kingdom of the eyes" in the world. According to incomplete statistics, about 360 million people wear various glasses. However, as a big consumer of eyeglasses, China's corresponding standards are quite far away from international standards. Even if the standards of glasses are mandatory standards, the pace of development is not particularly fast due to late start and insufficient attention. China also does not have the right to vote or say about the forthcoming series of international standards related to eye protection. Because our country lacks the right to speak in this specialized field, our company often encounters barriers from abroad in the process of going to the international market.

According to the survey, occupational eye injury accounts for about 5% of the total industrial injury and 50% of trauma in eye hospitals. According to the data previously published by the China Eye Trauma Conference, the proportion of eye injuries among workers in the country ranges from 1% to 3%, and in some industrial sectors it is as high as 34%.

During the production process, common industrial eye damage factors include foreign body eye injury, chemical eye injury, non-ionizing radiation eye injury, ionizing radiation eye injury, microwave eye injury, and laser eye injury.

Casting, machine building, and construction are the main departments in which ocular trauma to foreign bodies occurs. The vast majority of small particles can be washed away by tears; however foreign bodies left inside the eyelid and embedded in the cornea or sclera can cause ulcers and infections if not removed in time. Some solid high-speed waste foreign materials (such as metal fragments of rotating chips, broken particles of metal objects), if they hit the eyeball, or will be severe penetrating damage to the eye.

Chemical eye damage refers to the acid-alkali liquid or corrosive fumes that enter the eyes during the production process and can cause corneal burns. Examples include the use of sodium hydroxide, the operation of calcium oxide tanks, the transportation of pipes containing corrosive liquids or gases, and the splashing of cyanide or nitrite during metal quenching.

Non-ionizing radiation eye damage, including visible light, ultraviolet light, and infrared light, at a wavelength of 100 nm. Ultraviolet radiation can cause conjunctivitis, photophobia, pain, tearing, blepharitis and other symptoms, because the symptoms occur in welders, it is often referred to as "electrooptic ophthalmia", is a common occupational eye disease in industry. Infrared radiation produces thermal effects in the eye tissue, causing chronic eyelid verification or crystal turbidity (occupational cataracts). Visible glare can cause eye fatigue, eyelid and conjunctivitis, but these symptoms are temporary and do not leave pathological changes.

Ionizing radiation occurs mainly in the nuclear industry, nuclear power plants (such as nuclear power plants, nuclear submarines), nuclear explosions, high-energy physics experiments, medical diagnosis, and isotope treatments. If the eyes are subjected to power radiation, serious consequences can occur. When the total dose absorbed more than 2 Gy, people started to develop cataracts, and their incidence increased with the increase of the total dose.

Damage to the human eye by microwaves is mainly due to the thermal effects that cause cloudiness of the crystals, leading to the occurrence of "cataracts." Lasers have many applications in industrial, medical, and scientific research. If the laser is projected onto the retina, it can cause burns, and lasers larger than 0.1mW can cause eye bleeding, protein coagulation, melting, and permanent blindness.

Eyes are vulnerable to so many injuries. Eye protection products are particularly important. Functionally, glasses can be divided into: vision correction, eye protection, and decoration. The eye protection glasses mainly include sunglasses series, sports mirror series and occupational labor protection glasses series. With the development and progress of science and technology, eye protection mirrors have evolved from simple flat mirrors to lenses that can be made with different diopters according to the needs of users.

Individual eye protection refers to labor protection in industrial production activities. It involves the eye and face protection of individual workers in different occupations. These products are collectively referred to as occupational protective glasses. In general, industrial eye protection glasses can be divided into two kinds of anti-foreign safety goggles and light-proof goggles. Anti-fog goggles are classified into the following categories: safety goggles, protective products that protect against harmful substances from the eyes, such as eye-protective eye goggles and chemical eye goggles; sun-protected goggles: products that protect against harmful radiation damage, such as Welding goggles and kiln goggles, laser goggles and anti-microwave goggles and other products.

Another eye protection product is a protective mask that can protect the human face at the same time and is divided into: safety type and light-shielding type. Safe type, can prevent the harm of solid and liquid harmful objects to the eyes and face, such as tempered glass masks, plexiglass masks; shading protective masks are products to prevent harmful radiation damage to the eye surface, such as welding masks.

In industrial production, production workers, including decoration workers, auto repair workers, and steel workers, are all vulnerable to eye injuries. Therefore, it is best to wear goggles when working on site to prevent accidental eye injuries.

China's industrial protective glass standards fall behind the international development of industrial protective glasses. The beneficiary objects are each independent individual worker/consumer whose quality is related to the physical and mental health of the worker/consumer. Therefore, the study of the formulation of standards, technical indicators and quality inspection methods is also a matter of constant concern to people.

China enjoys the title of "the kingdom of the eyes" in the world. According to incomplete statistics, about 360 million people wear various glasses. However, unfortunately, as a big consumer of eyeglasses, China's corresponding standards and international standards are quite a distance - even if the standard of glasses is a mandatory standard, but due to late start and insufficient attention, the current standards used have not kept up with the times pace. Moreover, China does not have the right to vote or speak on the forthcoming series of international standards related to eye protection. Because our country lacks the right to speak in this specialized field, our company often encounters barriers from abroad in the process of going to the international market. Especially after China's accession to the WTO, the backwardness of national standards in this field and the occlusion of foreign standards have made it even more difficult for enterprises to respond to harsh technical barriers.

The reason why this situation has arisen is the division of labor that has been formed in the history of the government: work in the field of individual eye/face protection, including standards, measurement, quality inspection, etc., has been in a multi-headed management and has not been managed, making The level of expertise in this area lags behind.

For the influx of foreign products and products of small private enterprises flooded with the market, due to the lack of national standards and testing capabilities, the quality inspection department cannot implement quality control. The backwardness of standardization results in the inability of product quality to improve, directly affecting the visual health of consumers and workers.

At present, China is committed to the revision of national standards in this area. At present, the most used is the impact eye protectors and welding eye protectors. The standard currently used for the anti-impact eye protectors is GB5890-1986, and the welding eye protectors used are GB/T3609.1-1994. The former has already become obsolete and needs to be revised; the latter is currently undergoing revision.

As the country attaches more and more importance to safe production, and protective glasses are one of the main protective products, the demand for protective glasses in various safety fields will also increase.
