If I remember correctly, your eyes don’t adjust to black light the same it would as full spectrum, and will stay mostly dilated as if it were in the dark. This can increase the chances of photokeratitis, or basically sunburn on the eyes with high powered shows like this.

I am obviously not a dr

Similar to the effect of wearing one earplug or one headphone/IEM: when one ear is exposed to much louder sound than the other, the combined exposure across both ears doesn't trigger the natural protective mechanism [0] to the degree that it would be triggered if that same level of exposure was applied to both ears, so the one ear gets totally wrecked. Also not a doctor and would appreciate a counterpoint from anyone who knows this to be a myth.

Just like looking at a solar eclipse.
