If you dont know the wavelength of your laser try the following:
1) If your laser came with a manual check the Specifications section. The wavelength is normally written as Optical Wavelength and specified in nm. For example 1080nm.
2) If you dont have a manual try searching for the specifications online using your model and brand. For example enter in the model, make along with "laser wavelength" into Google or a search engine.
3) If you know your laser type such as Holmium laser but not the wavelength you can search for it in Google as "Holmium Laser Wavelength"
4) You can also contact the company that supplied the laser to you for the laser wavelength specification.
5) Another place you may find the laser wavelength is on the warning sign that should be on the side of the laser.
6) If you would like help or assistance in this process or selecting the appropriate laser glasses click here and send us a message with the information you have and we will be happy to help.
Knowing your laser wavelength is fundamental to working out the correct laser protective glasses for your laser. Laser glasses filter some wavelengths and let through others. Laser wavelengths are specified in nm which is short for nanometers (which is a thousanth millionth of a meter). The laser wavelength is not related to the power of the laser but to its frequency. It is usually specified as eg 635nm, 810nm etc in which case you can search using 635 or 810. Sometimes the laser wavelength is written with a tolerance such as 1064nm +/-10nm. Use the 1064 wavelength number when searching for the laser glasses as that is the central wavelength. You can then check in the specifications of the laser glasses that they also cover the central wavelength +/- the tolerance. If you have any questions feel free to contact us.
