Which optical risk increases when aligning a high-power laser?

A)Corneal or retinal thermal burns
B)Diffraction pattern intensity reduction
C)Spontaneous emission mode competition
D)Reduced laser pump efficiency effects

💡 Explanation

Misalignment can direct the intensive and coherent beam into the eye, and the **photothermal effect** rapidly heats the tissue. Therefore, thermal burns occur rather than diffraction or pump inefficiencies because alignment creates direct, concentrated exposure.
