The eye and the skin are organs that are particularly vulnerable to external aggression, such as electromagnetic radiation- meaning ultraviolet radiation, visible radiation (especially blue light) and infrared radiation. The three mechanisms involved are: the photo-thermic mechanism, the photochemical mechanism and the photomechanical mechanism. The effects of such exposures can be either temporary or permanent, if inadequate protection occurs. Today, there are enough data so that special protection measures can be taken concerning the potential damage of optical radiation. Among those, we mention artificial implants or sun glasses containing UV filters or surgical gestures that can be taken to protect the eye against the surgical light. Ultimately, the effects of optical radiation upon the eye are related to being well informed about the risks of uncontrolled exposure and the protection measures against it.
眼睛和皮肤是特别容易受到外部侵害的器官，例如电磁辐射——即紫外线辐射、可见光辐射（尤其是蓝光）和红外线辐射。涉及的三种机制是：光热机制、光化学机制和光机械机制。如果防护不足，此类暴露的影响可能是暂时的，也可能是永久性的。如今，有足够的数据可用于针对光辐射的潜在损害采取特殊保护措施。其中，我们提到含紫外线滤光片的人工植入物或太阳镜，以及为保护眼睛免受手术光影响而可采取的手术操作。归根结底，光辐射对眼睛的影响与充分了解无节制暴露的风险以及针对此类风险的防护措施有关。
