Section: claims

1. Goggles for receiving at least one radiation protection material which protects the eyes of a patient from radiation being harmful to the eyes, wherein the goggles comprise:two goggle frames each comprising a continuously circumferential side wall structure completely enclosing an area around the respective eye of the patient,a length-adjustable connection element between the two goggle frames in the area of the nose of the patient for changing the distance between the two goggle frames relative to one another, andat least one length-adjustable holding element for fixing the two goggle frames to the head of the patient,wherein the side wall structures are configured for receiving at least one radiation protection material substantially completely around its circumference,wherein each side wall structure comprises an inner and an outer side wall which are connected by means of a base wall at an end of the side wall structure, wherein the inner and the outer side wall have a predetermined distance in the cross direction to the viewing direction of the patient in order to form a space, the space being configured for receiving the at least one radiation protection material. 2. The goggles according to claim 1, wherein the at least one radiation protection material is configured so as to fill the space completely in the longitudinal direction. 3. The goggles according to claim 2, comprising a light transmissive element which is preferably arranged in the area of the distal end of each goggle frame, wherein preferably the inner side wall has a smaller height in the distal direction than the outer side wall, wherein the transmissive element is substantially flush with the outer side wall and/or rests against the distal end of the inner side wall. 4. The goggles according to claim 3, wherein the light transmissive element comprises a radiation protection material. 5. The goggles according to claim 4, wherein said radiation protection material is a low-Z material. 6. The goggles according to claim 5, wherein said low-Z material is acrylic glass or plastic materials loaded with high-Z materials. 7. The goggles according to claim 6, wherein said high-Z materials are bismuth or lead acrylic. 8. The goggles according to claim 3, wherein the shape and size of the light transmissive element are substantially adapted to the shape and size of the inner circumference of the outer side wall. 9. The goggles according to claim 1, wherein the at least one radiation protection material comprises a first material layer formed of a material having a low atomic number Z, and/or a second material layer formed of a material having a high atomic number Z, wherein the first material layer and the second material layer are provided as a compound layer, as a thin film or as a powder dispersed in a matrix material or as a liquid for casting or injection molding. 10. The goggles according to claim 9, wherein the first material layer is arranged in the space neighboring the outer side wall and the second material layer is arranged in the space neighboring the inner side wall. 11. The goggles according to claim 9, wherein said first material layer is Aluminum and said second material layer is lead or lead replacement materials such as bismuth, tungsten, tantalum or compounds of these metals. 12. The goggles according to claim 1, further comprising a first eye provided at the part of the respective side wall structure of a goggle frame facing the nose for attaching the connection element and/or further comprising a second eye provided at the part of the respective side wall structure of a goggle frame opposite the part facing the nose for attaching the holding element. 13. The goggles according to claim 1, wherein the proximal end of the side wall structure, has a shape and/or size being ergonomically adapted to the shape of the patient's head in the area around the eyes. 14. The goggles according to claim 1, wherein said goggles protects the eyes of a patient from β-radiation, x-ray radiation and/or gamma radiation.
