Hi all.
How do Wratten filters perform with lasers ? Same, better or worse than standard protection goggles ?

A laser wavelength thatdoes not pass trough a filter, is it because it is reflected or because it is absorbed and turned to heat in the filter ?

If it is turned to heat, is there a filter parameter/specification that states how much power the laser beam can be, otherwise, it may just burn ?
