I have IPL on the sides of my face and I wear black protective glasses for that. but i also have a some hair on my forehead but I have to remove the protective glasses for that because they come in the way but i keep my eyes tightly shut. So can this still cause any damage to my eyes? please reply back and answer my question as i am really worried! Thank you
