It accomplished the same thing (to a extend) that a laser cutter could, but it's not a laser cutter... since it's not using actual laser. Also I will advice against using those kind of specs as sunglasses, as hipster as they look... because they offer NO PROTECTION at all! Unlike actual sunglasses which attenuate lights evenly across an area, this kind has bands of dark and - unfiltered - bright area. The worse part is your eyes are fooled into thinking it's darker, thus dilate, and make them more susceptible to damage by the unfiltered bright spots. (on the same token sunglasses with a damaged spot, even tiny, will lose protection at that spot and do worse damage to your eyes) Cool concept!
