I'll add my 2 mils.

It is not the LVD that applies, but the RTTED that would
apply, if any at all.  Certainly the EMCD doesn't make sense
to apply.

If this is a MEMS mirror or grating, it might not be treated
much different from any IC and perhaps no EU directive
applies.

If it's a fiber-optic component (literally), it's possible
Richard Hughes is correct that IEC/EN60825-2 might apply,
but probably only marking and instruction requirements need
be considered, if that.

A little more detail on the product's function in the
network would be useful in helping you.
