Ocular Laser Damage


Question Posted Saturday August 29 2020, 2:53 am

I went to a large gathering and someone was there shining a laser and some kind of equipment throughout the crowd. The laser hit me and caused me to temporary lose awareness and part of my vision was damaged. It took a while for me to realize that I was experiencing discomfort and whenever I saw flashing Iights it use to trigger a PSTD attack. The permanent part of it was that when light reflects off of surfaces it hits the sensitive spot in my eyes and puts me in a semi-aware state, like a coma and I mostly can’t do anything when that happened. The best solution that I have right now is wearing sunglasses but it’s really annoying and uncomfortable to wear those all the time and everywhere. Most of the work that I have been doing requires sitting in front of a computer and looking at the screen, what can I do in the workplace for situations like that because it’s changing how I view and experience my environment.

I don't know anything about how laser lights can hurt the eyes and damage. All I've heard is to avoid looking at them. So there has to be a reason why its not good. I don't know if damage is reversable or anytbing. But I used to be a caregiver of a gal who had regular visits with a neurologist due to temperal lobe seizures. I have known people with issues like yours that came up without the event of a laser being shined in your eyes. So there may be a chance that the laser did damage and or simply woke an issue that would have soon in the future presented itself anyways. To have this cause a semi aware state, like a coma does not sound normal or good. So your general practice Dr. would need to see you so they can refer you to an eye Dr as well as a Neurologist. An eye Dr. can work on eye damamge but if your nerves are damaged, it may take a neurologist to help as well. Go see someone ASAP because waiting and not getting treatment for fear of what you'd hear may be the difference between staying this way or being healed.

I would see a doctor about this and perhaps a specialist about your eyes. If they find permanent damage and it's going to be an ongoing problem with vision see a lawyer next and sue the person who shone the laser. If you are having PTSD over this than that's an injury and illness someone caused with their stupidity and negligence. It doesn't matter whether or not you know these people but if you have permanent eye damage go after them.
