Interestingly Wikipedia says the high-powered green ones are based on IR diodes and retain a large IR component so goggles (or cockpit-window films) would need to take that into account since the invisible IR component is damaging too.
As long as the googles/glasses you purchased had an OD >5 that would protect the eyes fully.
