Am I correct in understanding that the FDA regulations (21 CFR Part 1040) do not consider LEDs to be Lasers? A Laser is defined by the FDA to be a device that has emissions of certain wavelengths "primarily by the process of controlled stimulated emission." I understand that an LED does not use this process.
I also understand that the FDA, following the lead of IEC825, once considered creating performance standards for LEDs but failed to do so. Is that correct?
