I wrote that story here about 3 years ago. In short - when I was young a bully in school was aiming laser pointer at me. It can be dangerous. It can make a huge black hole in your vision, if you re unlucky.
I had problem since that day - I often feel headaches due to my tired eyes. Its iriting, but my eyesight is generally perfect. Eye doctor helped me a little bit, but didnt explain anything - so I was worried that I might lose my eightsight some day, perhaps in few years.
Lately, I talked with AI about my story, I wanted to know what can be wrong with my eyes. AI told me that probably I have small holes in my vision, but my head ignores that holes. Homever, if the damage was bigger - my head wouldnt do anything and I would probably had a big black spot in my vision (picture related).
So, perhaps its not that bad as I thought. AI told me that I will headaches till my life, but my eye injury shouldnt affect my eyesight, I can still be for example 60, 70 years old and have typical eyesight of person at that age.
But it made my realise, in life nothing is sure, and bad things happens everywhere, you ll be in bad place at bad time and you can lost your health, etc.

>>300268how's your sleep?
i imagine you have a lot of sleep issues with chronic headaches not to mention how it will hinder your functionality at school/work

>>300270My chronic headaches appear few times per day, but if I close my eyes for a while a headache would disappear, so sleep is not a problem for me.
Before AI existed I tried to google my problem, but there were no specific informations about that, but only texts - ,,laser pointer in few seconds can make pernament damage", but no one exactly discribed, what ,,pernament eye damage" means.
I also never went to eye doctor to ask, because from my experiences doctors can sometimes be assholes.

One time doing laser work I accidentially glanced at a blue-ray laser diode. I saw it through a piece of beam blocking paper I made that had a large circle in the middle at beam height. When I looked away I started seeing that same circle and square shape where ever I looked. I was so terrified but the image eventually faded.
Generally any damage to your retina can be compensated by your brain reprocessing the image. However things like floaters make it difficult because they don't track with your eye movements.
The only really dangerous things is if you start seeing black blotches at the edge of your eye sight slowly growing inwards. These mean your retina is detaching and you have 24 hours to get surgery before permanently losing your eyesight.
