I do not understand the assumptions behind this question. Can you clarify what you mean?

Is a red bulb enough or do you need a 670nm laser?
I hope this was a joke. Don’t shine lasers in your eyes. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laser_safety
For the love of all that’s dear in this world, please don’t use a laser for that.

If you’re in a DIY mood, you can easily pick LEDs around that wavelength and they would generate more than enough light to even cause damage (if close enough).

what assumptions? it was an honest question.
