What types of injuries can occur if a person stands in area T when a laser device is fired?

Standing in area T when a laser device is fired can lead to injuries primarily affecting the skin and eyes. Laser devices emit highly concentrated beams of light that can cause significant damage to these areas.

The eyes are particularly vulnerable to laser exposure because they can focus the light onto the retina, potentially resulting in permanent vision damage or blindness, depending upon the intensity and duration of exposure. Skin can also be affected; exposure to a laser can cause burns or other skin injuries, especially if the beam is held on a particular spot for an extended period.

While other injury types mentioned in other choices, such as hearing loss or neurological damage, might result from different types of equipment or situations, they are not typically associated with laser exposure in this context. Therefore, focusing on the risk of skin and eye injuries provides a clear understanding of the potential hazards associated with standing in area T during laser operations.
