Floater and HRTII

I have eye floater  for some times and i do regular eye checkup. This sunday i was seeing  one or two more in my right eye and i was in a different place and went to see a eye doc. This eye doc told me one/ two new floater is not  serious but he will look into my eye. This is what he did

He took a vedio using his HRT II machine. Then he showed me this vedio and told me if u have a retina problem then this will will show you many floaters are passing by.  But he could not see any. Then he showed me some vedio where he had somebody with retina problem and showed lot of floaters passing by in vedio. Anyway tomorrow i will be back to my place and will go to my eye doc for a  retina checkup.  My questions for you:-

1. Is light ( laser)  coming from HTR II harmful for eye? Is there any chance that this lase might burn my eye?

2. Is it possible to see floater by HRT II vedio?

As I said I have no experience with it, I know nothing about the wavelength or power out put or safety fetures.

I have no experience with the HRT II video. Ask the retina Eye MD about it.
