The laser will typically have an information card or product manual with it, on the inside it has all Government regulated information as to what is in the device, and how it is regulated by FDA.
Sometimes the device will have a sticker directly on it which also has all required FDA information. If not, it will have a manufacturers part number which can be referenced inside the manual or on that information card.
