eye protection question on blue and green lasers

$

I have a noob question from someone who just acquired two lasers and safety glasses but I want to make sure I got the correct safety glasses for the type of lasers I have.

I have run these lasers for a total of less than one minute wearing safety glasses and have only seen the actual beam on video out of an abundance of caution.

My two lasers are:

Jet Lasers Dazzler 300-1000mW 532nm

A locally made 2.1 watt blue laser

My eye protection:

1. Jet Lasers goggles 190 - 540 mm OD + CE
(I bought these as part of a package with my Jet Lasers green laser.)

2. Eagle pair from Survival Lasers: 190 - 540 nm OD + CE
(These were recommended by the maker of the blue laser)


However, the Eagle glasses aren't near as "dark" when I used the lasers.

Are either of these glasses sufficient eye protection for what I have?

Is the darker Jet Lasers eye protection, although it's made for a green laser, good for the blue laser I have?

Could you direct me to where I might learn to educate myself more on eye protection.

I have read of the accidents from various posts and am extremely cautious by nature.

Thanks so much for your help and input.
