Class 2 Lasers
Class 2 lasers are lasers that emit visible radiation in the wavelength range from
400 nm to 700 nm, where eye protection is normally afforded by aversion re­
sponses, including the blink reflex. This reaction may be expected to provide ade­
quate protection under reasonably foreseeable conditions of operation, including
the use of optical instruments for intrabeam viewing.
Class 2 Laser Safety Notes
Low­power lasers are, by definition, incapable of causing eye injury within the du­
ration of a blink (aversion response) of 0.25 seconds. They also must emit only
visible wavelengths (400 to 700 nm). Therefore, an ocular hazard may exist only
if individuals overcome their natural aversion to bright light and stare directly into
the laser beam.
