I got exposed to a 180 mW 532 nm Nd-YAG laser light scattered off a surface for a duration of 0.25 seconds. I saw a scotoma in both my eyes in the centre, that disappeared after a few seconds. Are my retinas permanently fried?

Yes, that's way above damage thresholds. Go see a doctor, and wear laser goggles next time.

if it disappeared after a few seconds, probably not
but you could go to the doctor or just optometrist, they should be able to see retina damage unless it's extremely minor
t. scotoma enjoyer

Go see a doctor. Now.
He'll look into your retina and see if damaged.
Do it now! Not a week from now.

You're being a pussy. Go find an experienced laser operator to bitch to. Bring them a pickle jar to open for you so your time wasn't completely wasted.
