First introduced in 1962, LED(light-emitting diodes) emitted low-intensity red light, but modern versions are now available across the ultraviolet, visible, and infrared spectrum, many with very high luminance or brightness. As a result, growing importance of potential safety harzards for human. Now when certificated of CE provide that testing through IEC/EN 62471 for any lamp. Korea standard adopted as it IEC 62471:2006, Photobiological safety of lamps and lamp systems without change, but effectiveness is incomplete. In this paper, we introduce analysis and direction that urgently come into effectiveness of KS C IEC 62471 as a national standard specifications.

목적: 청색광 위험도의 정량적 지표인 청색광 복사휘도를 이용하여 안경원 내 LED 조명에 대한 청색광 위험도를 평가하였다. 방법: LED 조명의 분광복사휘도를 측정하고 청색광 복사휘도와 최대노출시간을 산출한 후, IEC 62471 분류기준에 따라 위험군을 분류하였다. 결과: 진열장에 사용된 황색 LED 조명, 천장에 사용된 백색 및 황색 LED 조명, 그리고 로고에 사용된 백색 LED 조명은 위험제외군 RG0로 분류되었지만, 진열장에 사용된 백색 LED 조명은 위험군 RG1으로 분류되었다. 진열장에 사용된 백색 LED 조명의 청색광 복사휘도는 형광등에 비하여 수십 배나 높은 것으로 나타났다. 결론: 청색광 복사휘도의 값을 이용하여 여러 가지 조명에 대한 청색광 위험을 정량적으로 표현할 수 있었다. 진열장용 백색 LED 조명은 높은 휘도와 색온도로 청색광 위험이 높음을 확인할 수 있었으며, 안경원 내의 조명 교체 시 장기적이 측면에서 시건강을 위해 적절한 밝기와 색온도의 조명을 선택하는 것이 필요하겠다.

Recently, sterilization technology has received increasing interest due to the COVID-19 pandemic and required safety precautions. Particularly, sterilization devices using near ultraviolet (UV) with a 405 nm wavelength are also drawing attention. It has a UV-C wavelength and other sterilization effects. Its blue-colored light on the boundary between UV and visible light is used as a light-emitting diode (LED) lamp for 405 nm sterilization, owing to its longer wavelengths than UV rays. However, the 405 nm wavelength contains blue light that can damage the eyes and skin during prolonged exposures and affect the emotional and biological parts of the body. Currently, 405 nm sterilization LED light registers are circulating in the market. However, they have not undergone safety tests for blue-light hazards. Thus, with the active distribution of sterilization LED lights, solid safety standards and management systems are essential to protect users from blue-light hazards. Accordingly, in this study, we conducted spectral radiance and spectral radiative luminance tests on 405 nm sterilization LED registers available in the market by the measurement criteria of IEC 62471. Safety standards must be established to secure users' safety against blue light hazards at a time when 405nm sterilization LED lights are actively distributed due to COVID-19.
