So how close can you get your eyeballs to the sensor? Even if IR isn't in the visible spectrum, that doesn't mean it can't damage your eyes at high power levels. If anything, its more dangerous because you won't notice it.
-
Cameras have an IR blocking filter and it still damaged the sensor. I don't know how they can consider it eye safe. I wouldn't want to be close to one.

Most cameras do not have IR blocking. This is how you are able to see IR LEDS with your phone, including remote control LEDS and security cameras with night vision.
Also, infrared is very safe and you are spreading disinformation.
-
Every normal color camera has an IR filter. If they did not, the photos would be pink in sunlight. Some IR gets though the filter allowing you to see IR LEDs, but it's significantly attenuated.
