@todddrivermd: Laser pointers are safe when used properly—as a visual and instructional aid. However, when misused, especially by children, they can cause serious and irreversible eye damage. 👀 #ophthalmology #ophthalmologist #eyesurgeon #doctors #eyespecialist
I didn't know that. Thank you for the information 👍

Agreed, our office saw a 10yr old that was “dared” to stare at the laser for 5 seconds. Now he sees a large black spot centrally 😢

When I was little I would look directly into the laser to see the pretty light for minutes at a time, I have no idea how I’m not blind 😭

Thank you for this! I’ve been told I’m just paranoid & mean for not letting them play with laser pointers. I knew it was bad for cats/dogs & just figured it had to also be bad for people. I’m about to send this to the grandparents!
