Embodiment Construction

[0044] The device for radiation protection of the eyes comprises a housing 1 consisting of a hood-like frame 2 with an open back side which surrounds the head with the eye area and surrounds the wearer laterally in a light-tight manner temples. Furthermore, the mask frame 2 is fixed to a support device 3 for fitting over the head and has nose pads 4 for positioning and supporting the mask frame 3 on the bridge of the nose of the wearer.

[0045] In the front region of the hood-like frame 2, ie on the side facing away from the head, there is a front opening 5 extending substantially over its entire width, in order to accommodate The completed shield 6. Especially when the shield 6 is made of lead sheet, the slightly curved shield 5 reduces the radiation dose of the X-ray radiation source reaching the eye to close to zero.

[0046] As long as the desired shielding effect can be ensured, the shield 6 can be made of lead or other suitable materials. Therefore, weight can be reduc...

Abstract

The invention relates to an apparatus for protecting eyes from radiation, in particular for protecting the lenses of medical staff from X-ray or other ionizing radiation during medical examinations. The aim of the invention is to devise an apparatus which is easy to use and ensures that eyes are shielded from X-ray radiation but that the wearer nevertheless has the best working and visual conditions. This is achieved in that a housing (1) consists of a shell-like frame (2) which surrounds the eye region and, laterally, the temples of the wearer, in that the shell-like frame is provided with aholding device (3) for placement on the head and with a bridge part (4) for positioning on the bridge of the nose, in that the frame (2) is provided with a front-side opening (5) in which a shield (6)that is impermeable to X-ray radiation is fitted and in that at least one reproduction device (9) for stereoscopically reproducing video information is provided within the frame (2) on the rear sideof the shield (6) facing the eyes, said reproduction device being coupled to an optical recording device or a camera (10) which is provided on the side of the shield (6) facing away from the eyes of the wearer.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a device for radiation protection of the eye, in particular the lens of the eye, of medical personnel, such as a diagnostician, during medical examinations or treatments. Background technique [0002] It has long been known that high levels of X-ray radiation can cloud the lens of the eye and cause cataracts. The ICRP (International Commission on Radiological Protection) has proposed reducing the permissible radiation exposure from 150 mSv to 20 mSv as the maximum annual dose to the eye. [0003] The current protection for the eyes of diagnosticians is lead glasses, which provide some protection when used correctly. However, in X-ray systems, especially those with multiple X-rays, it is difficult to achieve adequate shielding (Source: Dr. Reinhard Loose, published in "healthcare-in-europe.com", 29.05.2013 "Strahlenschutz, damit nichts in Auge geht"). [0004] Furthermore, attempts have been made to precisely measure the exte...
