Hi June,
They were certainly a problem for me and there was one doctor that would keep twirling the thing around what he wanted us to look at. He would circle a portion several times with the laser pointer. Some of the doctors used Power Point presentations which is a newer technology and that was no problem. We can't really dictate what the doctors can use, though. I'm just glad that they come and make their presentations however they will. I think that it could be suggested to them that the Power Point is much easier on our eyes. But, I'll go either way. I'll just look down during that presentation if the lights are too much.
