      Yes they do, depending on the power of the laser you might need special mirrors.

      As far as eyes go it would really hurt as such but it could blind you instantly, so please do not shine lasers into peoples eyes and always be careful when playing with lasers! With the big lasers I use there are a lot of rules as the beam is invisible to our eyes but would definatly blind you in one shot, so we wear safety goggles that blocks the beam you can see that Im wearing a set in my profile picture
