To continue riley_A's ponit: Before investing in a light/laser combo, you should look into what's allowed on the fields you're playing on. Many facilities and game hosts will not allow lasers, unless they're eye safe with documentation of their class (ie use an actual EOTech PEQ-15). The reason for this, is that knock off lasers aren't built with the same QC and components, and can easily put out a lot more energy than the label says it does.
There are quite a few people in the community who are missing teeth because they don't want to wear face pro, but there are also a small handful of people with blind spots from taking a laser to the eyeball. It's not a rampant epidemic or anything, but just know that poorly crafted lasers have the potential to cause damage.
