As all we know, directive for medical device is more restrict than non-medical device. If a medical laser device complies with MDD (medical device directive), does that mean it also complies with LVD and EMC?
The answer to this very good question can be found in the document:
"GUIDE TO THE IMPLEMENTATION OF DIRECTIVES BASED ON THE NEW APPROACH"(see in the attachment)
Section 2.2
Simultaneous application of directives
2.2.1. New Approach directives
* Where the same product or hazard is covered by two or more directives, the application of other directives can sometimes be excluded following an approach that includes a risk analysis of the product with a view to intended use as defined by the manufacturer
