The protective cap includes an insertion opening into which a part of the catheter of a predetermined range on the light emitting end side is removably inserted, includes a window portion for transmitting the light output from the light emitting end of the catheter, and is fixed in position by being inserted into a through-hole of the adapter. The adapter is fixed in position by being attached to the attachment unit.

Eyewear having monitoring capability, such as for radiation, is disclosed. Radiation, such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, infrared (IR) radiation or light, can be measured by a detector. The measured radiation can then be used in providing radiation-related information to a user of the eyewear. Advantageously, the user of the eyewear is able to easily monitor their exposure to radiation.

An optical sensor arrangement comprises an emitting device (E) and a detection device (D) configured to emit and detect, respectively, electromagnetic radiation and a cover (C) arranged to cover the emitting and the detection device (E, D). The sensor arrangement comprises a first cover layer (C1) partially covering an inner surface of the cover (C) and having a first and a second opening located above the emitting and the detection device (E, D), respectively. The sensor arrangement comprises a second and a third cover layer (C2, C3) covering the inner surface at areas of the first and the second opening. A reflection and/or an absorption characteristics of at least one of the second and third cover layer (C2, C3) is adapted to a reflection and/or an absorption characteristics of the first cover layer (C1) for incident light within the specified spectrum.

A semiconductor package that is a proximity sensor includes a light transmitting die, a light receiving die, an ambient light sensor, a cap, and a substrate.
