Dvojica dečaka u Hrvatskoj ostala bez vida na jedno oko zbog lasera

TL;DR
- Two boys in Croatia sustained permanent vision damage in one eye from laser pointers.
- The lasers used had a power of up to 100 milliwatts.
- Green lasers are particularly damaging to the eyes due to how the eye best reacts to that color.
- A young woman also required hospital treatment due to a laser in a discotheque, though her long-term vision was unaffected.
- Lasers are not toys and should not be pointed directly into the eyes.
- Lasers with power up to one milliwatt may not pose a significant health danger.
- Manufacturers or importers are responsible for the safety of laser products.
- Consumers are advised to be cautious when buying cheaper laser products online from third countries.
