Is there any eye damage if the light is accidentally shined in your eyes?

Im not sure, but like any other lights you really dont want to shine them to your eyes or play with them.

No! because the scope has a chemical inside that will degrade if to much light hits it.

Definitely not! The light is extremely bright and it makes it hard to see anything, especially in low light.

It is not so bright that it hurts MY eyes. I usually use it on low for reading at night but have turned it on high and have NOT been negatively effected by it. :)

No. Like ultraviolet light, infrared light has a different wave frequency that is damaging to vision if exposed to for long periods of time. You should always wear protective goggles when using the infrared bulb or using tanning beds.

I spoke with my optomistrist, and she indicated that she knew of no eye condition that would prevent a person from using this type of light. She actually encouraged it. She did recommend that each person check with their own eye doctor, and if there was any discomfort at all, to discontinue use. She also advised against staring right in the light, but rather, let it shine on the side of your face.

Yes. The "IR" light is a red LED that can be seen naked eye. If your up against someone with genII or better it's like a bright target on your face. You can disable the light but the quality drops so low you'd be better off eating an ass-ton of carrots instead in hopes of developing super powered eyes.

Thats what any strobe will do. If you are using it in a dark room it will be changing from dark to light very fast and can mess with you brains perception.

no it doesn't, but you must wear protective goggles. some of my lights burned out but can be replaced.

Sure, like any other laser you don't look into it. You would have to look directly into the laser beam to do any damage to the eye.

It is a softer glow; nothing glaring that would hurt your eyes. Deciding factor for me since I am visually impaired and light sensitive. I am sitting next to one of these units right now and looked down at it :) They perform so well I have multiple units - great product!!

Absolutely not. It enhances the glare from the street lights, if anything it's more dangerous when wearing them

I'm not an expert but it not about what light your eyes get, it's about your skin. And the light isn't dangerous, unless of course, you're putting your face right up against it, that just seems more uncomfortable than smart.

No. The flash of light can be bright and I have tried sunglases but then its hard to see what your doing. It is easier to just close eyes for the quick split second flash.

Very much so! It's quite bright (the reflector augments the LED). Great value, but expect to remove the piece of glue other reviewers have mentioned. I just used tweezers - easy peasy.

no, this product does not hurt or damage your eyes. don't freak out as you are waiting for the drops to be absorbed by your eyes. personally though, in my opinion, this product wasn't really worth the amount of money I spent on it. my eyes did look a bit whiter but I found that I had bad allergies and I started using Zaditor eye drops and it took care of the underlying problem I was having, and once that problem was addressed, the whites of my eyes became clear and bright. good luck.
