I shined a class 3B laser in my eye for less than 1 second. Seeing spots now, how long til they leave?

Question

Only did it to see how bad it would be. It looked like I was staring at the sun . Im seeing some pretty intense spots now, and it's been over an hour. I'm hoping they'll be gone tomorrow, but im worried. Any idea if my eye will bounce back?

Answer 1

Yeah. Right. I am a mom and can see through a lot of stupidity. This is one of those instances.

Answer 2

go to casualty dept. I don't know what age you are but that's got to be one of the stupidest things you could do . If you did that to another person you WOULD be charged with serious assault . As for your eye bouncing back, I hope so. I've had a few welding flashes in my eye and my eyes felt like there was sand in them but it did get better. I hope you're the same but there is a real danger of permanent damage.
