Abstract
The invention is directed to a microscope in which laser light is used to irradiate a sample to be examined and which is outfitted with a protective device for preventing eye damage due to laser light. It is the object of the invention to provide a protective device for microscopes of the type described above which ensures protection against eye damage and visibility of the sample. According to the invention, the protective device has at least one area which is not transparent to harmful radiation components, but which is transparent to harmless, visible radiation components, so that an observer can see the sample through this area without risk of eye damage.
