I was walking down a small street one day where there was a bar across the street with a spinning blue laser on its front awning. It directs a blue light down the sidewalk, across the street, to the other sidewalk, up the opposite building and repeats. I'm not really sure if it was a laser but the blue streak on the floor as it went past was too focused and clean to not be a laser.Or could it be something else? Anyway, I momentarily stared at it directly for a second involuntarily when I walked into its trajectory and I saw into the light directly as it passed up my body. It was probably 15 feet up and 50 feet away.
Now my right eye has this weird sore and weak sensation and I'm not sure if I'm just overthinking it or not. I am visually impaired with cone dystrophy and if there were any damage, my poor vision in general may mask the issue. I am also wondering if chances are that the spinning laser (or something else?) is harmless or they wouldn't put it outside for people walking on the sidewalk to run into. But I don't think barsr are known for their responsibility, and I've heard of clubs with raves and lasers that make people go blind because of improper use. However I am not sure if the blue thing is a laser at all, and it didn't have a visible beam aside from where it hit the ground.
