The handheld device using light-emitting diodes to emit super-bright pulses of light at rapidly changing wavelengths, causing disorientation, nausea and even vomiting in whomever it's pointed at.

At last, someone has developed a weapon I am probably immune to, since I am totally blind. Well, I’m not totally blind—I can probably still see a nuclear blast (but just for a moment) or the return of Christ (for eternity).

‘rapidly changing wavelengths, causing disorientation, nausea and even vomiting’
