Importance of putting Safety Goggle for laser treatment

Laser beam focused by the lens on the retina or fovea
An incident laser beam striking directly inline with the lens is very
dangerous. The beam is magnified over 100,000 times by the lens of
the eye. The more divergence of the beam the less light strikes the eye.
The more the mean is focused or collimated the greater the fluence of
the beam and potential for injury.

Safety Goggles
Not all Safety Goggles are the same. The protective eyewear that came with your laser is manufactured
specifically for the wavelengths emitted by the laser. Do not use protective eyewear from other

manufacturers as they may not provide the appropriate level of protection
