    3 times is taking the piss.. I would’ve let a tyre down or hit in the stomach… Must’ve been something wrong with my arm, or your tyre, must be catching!

    I would certainly report it… But I also know trying to get ParcelFarce to take anything seriously is like getting blood from a stone.

    Anyone know about lazer’s and will it have left any trace on my eyes, any damage?

    Was he using the laser to scan a barcode or cut the parcel in half?

    Lasers must be CE certified and comply with EN60825-1:2007 in order to be legally placed on the market in the EU. You could check the scanner for a CE mark and request a copy of the Deceleration of Conformity from the manufacturer. This should be publicly available.

    In the event of a potential claim where you can prove partial loss of vision your legal team can request sight of the technical construction file to verify the claims in the DoC.

    However, if he was scanning, not cutting*, it’s likely a Class 2M laser, in which case you are protected by your natural blink aversion, unless you were using an optical instrument to look into the beam (magnifying glass, microscope, binoculars). Or you had matchsticks in your eyes.

    Since I suspect you weren’t using binoculars and probably blinked, I’d recommend you MTFU.

    * If he was cutting, it’ll be a Class 4 laser but should be in a sealed room and protected by interlocks.

    Never assume anything. Kaesae may have been taking reciept of a very tiny parcel.

    So they are dangerous but if I blink I will be fine 😯

    Will it have left any trace on my eyes that can be detected at all?

    You can make your own laser for next time with jelly, two mirrors, tinfoil and a camera flash. Get a pair of laser safety glasses too and you’ll be set for a duel.

    I’d imagine all his tinfoil is already in use….

    you should go the chemist and ask for some anti-laser eye drops which will get rid of any traces of laser beam.
    with any luck they will have you sectioned.

    Yes light beams from class 2 lasers have a half life of 4,567,429 years.
    they will continue to bounce around inside your eyes long after you have popped your mortal coil.

    maybe it was a DIY eyesight laser correction kit?

    kaesae might be right. Another scanner attack;this guy blinked and burned an image of his eyes to his eyelids

    Next time he tries to do it just get out a small mirror and reflect it back in his eyes.

    Tricky one. If it’s burnt your retina, you won’t be able to see. So not sure how you’d detect the damage. Have you got a big gap in your vision?

    It’ll be a class 1 or class 2 laser so it’s intrinsically safe, i.e. class 1 is weak enough to cause no damage anyway, class 2 would only damage you if you stared at it and prevented your blink reflex working properly mechanically. If you were forced to blink, you’re safe. If you didn’t blink it wasn’t bright enough to hurt you. The ones you need to worry about are the ones you can’t see or the ones behind guards that you can’t reach unless you’re trained – then life gets more fun.

    Stop your whining.

    barcode scanners use low-power (compared to Trout Light) LEDS not “lazers”. MTFU and get over it.
