    Unfocused vision from 100 mW diode laser in lab?

    When I shine the laser at a wall or a power sensor, for example, it can be quite bright and wash out my vision a bit like I've been looking at a bright lamp or something. I know diffuse reflections are supposed to be harmless at that power, but is the brightness a sign of alarm?

    Thanks for the responses. I'll try to get more sleep and stop worrying so much and hopefully I'll feel better.

    Unfocused vision from 100 mW diode laser in lab?

    Last week I started assisting in research at my school, and have been working quite a bit with a red diode laser. The wavelength is 660 nm and the power is around 100 mW. The label says it's a Newport 370-RC if that helps. Anyway, the people I'm working with gave me some basic safety...
