Mother's laser pen warning
A mother is warning other parents about the dangers of laser pens after her son's right eye was scarred.
Her 10-year-old son was referred by his optician to see a consultant at the Princess Royal Hospital in Lewes Road, Haywards Heath, because she had noticed scarring of the macula area in his right eye.
He was diagnosed with a macular burn, which was caused by ‘careless play with a laser pen’, said the mother, who asked not to be named to protect the identity of her son.
