If I may change to a different laser wavelength with a conforming lens, a 1 megawatt laser will cause nearly instantaneous, and irreversible, damage at ranges beyond one mile. I agree with Happy Dog. The toys being bandied about here, and what are available on the consumer market, are virtually harmless. On the other hand, a NdYAG for example, is NOT in the visible spectrum and you wouldn't know to look away until that blurry spot appeared in your visual field. Same with CO2 and a host of other weapons grade gadgets. NdYAGs are available in visible wavelengths. As for UV or IR lasers, how would you aim them? moo
