Tampa,, sweet.. we have some fine members not too far away and there are 2 or more LEMs per year (search FLEM which happen on Orlando. ...you gotta go!!
you may have noticed that in every 'greet' you got... safety was mentioned.. so own the correct eye protection
when needed
and should you think you my have been injuried. /// PLEASE if symptoms do not go away in a few days consider seeing an eye doctor--BUT make no new threads here about that at LPF -- IF you feel you must get with someone here --send them(or any VET) a PM-- any publicity about any injury can be used to make owning any laser illegal.
AND we cannot give medical advice...
also know that not every pair of glasses protects against all lasers.. so if ATM you can only own one pair, BE SURE the info on the frames notes that all visible wavelengths are covered in that protection.. AND to do it right.. you need to know when to wear them.. more on that later.. make the LPF search be your new best friend-- find and study Dr. Sam's Laser FAQ.. he is sorta our 'guru' & has MANY lasers for sale.
... we understand that not all can afford a laser meter. .... so one of our 'traditions' is metering any laser for any member at no charge... & you cant beat 'hand-on' help...
btw I have lived in Tarpon Springs- Ft Pierce and Naples... best wishes ..Hak
