What would a world without the laser be like?
The Laser has had a massive impact on society. People take lasers for granted and most probably won't know that lasers are used in everyday objects. If we didn't have laser then we wouldn't have dvd players, laser hair removal, laser eye surgery, printers, barcode scanners, laser sights and photocopying machines. If Theodore Maiman didn't invent the laser in 1960 the world will be a very different place. There will be no awesome, flashing lasers at concerts, there will be no dvd players so no dvds either, there will be less people driving because those people with really bad eye sight would not be allowed to drive unless they consulted an eye specialist, people will have to write with pen you wouldn't be able to photocopy any thing and you wouldn't be able to buy a toy laser from your local two dollar shop
Does a typical laser pointer for presentations damage your eye sight after it has been reflected from a white board?

Does Laser eye surgery charge you per eye?
Yes, laser eye surgery typically charges per eye. Since each eye may have different vision correction needs, the procedure is often tailored individually. This allows for a personalized treatment plan and pricing structure based on the specific requirements of each eye. Charging per eye ensures that patients receive accurate pricing reflecting the complexity of their surgery. Additionally, it offers flexibility for those who may only need one eye corrected or choose to undergo surgery on one eye at a time. Therefore, most clinics and surgeons will quote prices based on the number of eyes undergoing the procedure.

Can laser pointers kill you?
I suppose a crate full of them could fall on your head ... Or someone could shine one in your eyes when you were driving ... But barring something like that, laser pointers do not have enough power to harm skin. You shouldn't look directly at them (as the sign on more than one research laser I've seen says, "Do not stare directly into beam with remaining eye"), but you can shine it at your hand for as long as you like.
