I would like to thank gGlenn. Took a hit from a BR laser through his laser goggles (albeit overrated ones :-P). >110mW at around 1 foot.

Just got back from optician.

Field of view. OK
Visual Perception. OK
Colours(?!) OK.
Retina- unchecked

Overall sight: 20:12! Not bad methinks. Its gone down since I last had my eyes done but she doent think this is laser related ( I used to have 20:10). Not too shabby still....

so Glenn thank you.
I know there are some problems with his goggles; regardless BUY THEM.

If I may ask? How did the accident happen? I like to be aware of all possible scenarios that we might face.
Glad you are OK and had the sense to have the goggles on.
 
Stupid really; reflection direct from one of those marbles..... direct shot to the eyes... Glenn was sure I had done nothing but I wanted to check with the doc....

I suppose now I have tested the goods.... They work!
 
Marbles are curved so it should have been spread out. Though it's still 100mw+. This is why we wear goggles. :) If you didn't have them, you could of had some damage!

Thank you for your answer. I like to know all the dangerous situations we face.
That way we can avoid them.
