Laser protection

Lasers operate on fixed wavelengths - the bright green ones that eyes are most sensitive to are at 532nm. Safety glasses exist that strongly attenuate that wavelength without blocking much else. It might be appropriate for flight crews to wear these, or at least have them available.
