ANSI Z80.3 Document Information:
Title
Ophthalmics – Nonprescription Sunglass and Fashion Eyewear Requirements
American National Standards Institute
Publication Date:
Sep 2, 2009
Scope:
This standard applies to all nonprescription sunglasses and
fashion eyewear, normally used for casual, dress, and recreational
purposes, having lenses of substantially plano power. This standard
specifically excludes products covered by ANSI Z87.1-2003, ANSI
Z80.1-2005, ASTM F803-2003, and high-impact resistance eyewear
designed exclusively for designated sports use. Sunglass needs for
aphakics may not be met by this standard.
Purpose
The purpose of this standard is to establish standards for
noncorrective (essentially plano power) lenses that are intended
for attenuation of light and for fashionwear, and for the
flammability of frames and lenses. These products are commonly
called sunglasses, and they are not designed to be industrial
safety eyewear as defined in ANSI Z87.1-2003, or to provide
corrective prescriptions as defined in ANSI Z80.1-2005, or to
provide protection for selected sports defined in ASTM F803- 2003.
Lenses covered by this standard are not intended for use under
conditions of reduced illumination, such as for night driving;
however, variable tint lenses that fade to a luminous transmittance
greater than 75% are covered.
