I'm still not convinced. So it absorbs the IR before it hits the retina,
what's the effect of rapid heating on the cornea? Any IR filter strong
enough to screen-out a high-power laser hit will make the camera unusable.

Why would that be? IR is not a range that is normally included in
photographs, so having a removable filter would be a good thing. If
someone was intent on taking IR images, just remove the filter and stop
shooting self-driving cars.

cameras already have an ir cut filter.
