Corneal Reflex

The term Corneal Reflex refers to the protection mechanism of the eye when the eyelid reflexively closes as soon as foreign objects rapidly move towards the eye / bright light flashes into the eye. The corneal reflex is an important factor when it comes to assessing the safety of show laser systems.
The corneal reflex can be partially suppressed by actively keeping your eyes open, which may lead to increased laser radiation exposure: DO NOT LOOK INTO THE BEAM!
