Is it ok to look at the bright light of a scanner when it’s scanning a picture? Any health issues?
1. I’m just concerned about my health. So, I don’t know if it’s a laser beam, but I kind of looked at it, when the scanning was going on. It was a really bright light. So, does this affect my eye in any way?

2. Also, I put my hand on the plate and scanned my palm. So, is it a good thing to do? Should I be concerned about my health?

My scanner is kind of like this >>>

Best answer:

There is not any more danger to this than looking at any other very bright light, or putting your hand in front of a flashlight.
