Abstract

A 'gas blown' silicone foam (10) is used as a barrier or shield for protecting people and equipment from the harmful effects of laser beams. A reflecting means (2) or fire retardant material (7) and/or surgical dressing (6) can be used in combination with the silicone foam (10). The reflecting means (2) can be reinforced with a foil (3). The barrier can take various forms such as rigid barriers or flexible shields, for use as drapes, eye covers, adhesive tape, etc.
