Implication

Analytical study reveals ocular hazards from far infrared laser radiation in exposed workers, indicating the necessity of updated maximum permissible exposure standards.

Key Points

Far infrared laser radiation damages not only the cornea but also the retina, depending on the absorption coefficient of ocular tissues.
Using analytical methods and mathematical modeling of tissue thermochemical destruction, researchers determined damage thresholds for eyeball tissue.
The results justify higher hygienic reserve coefficients, calling for updated maximum permissible level standards to ensure worker eye protection.
