Of course, I won't be shining it into anybodies eyes. But i've heard from sources that just looking at the dot of a strong laser with no filter can damage your eyes.

So, I'm planning on picking up a 50mw and a 200mw. The guy said they don't have filters, but they're pretty cheap. Should I move on to a place with filters, or just take them?

And glasses, same thing. If i'm just pointing it on my bedroom wall, will my eyes get damaged with no glasses?
