Since the randomizer has apparently caused my last post to be eliminated, I'm going to say the same thing in different words: why not wear red lensed l@ser safety glasses at low altitude? That should cut down on the effectiveness of blue/green l@sers, which seem to be the main problem. Such glasses are available cheaply.
Given the use of coloured lights/screens on the flightdeck and in runway lighting, PAPI kit etc I'd have thought disadvantage with anything that interfered with colour vision would be pretty clear.
