  Yes, scanner light is bad to eyes. Scanner light, mostly being UV and IR light have very dangerous effects on human. They can damage human's eyes in several ways. For example, excessive exposure to the lowest wavelengths of UV light can cause damage to the cornea as well as the lens. So do not keep your eyes on the scanner light for a long time.

  Staring at scanner light directly can damage our eyes because of the radiation let out by the light. It can cause eye strain which is the slightest problem of the side effect. It can cause our eyesight dropping as well. More serious effect may appear in a row if some always staring at the scanner light. So, try to avoid the direct stare. If you need to work at this kind of environment, you need to wear sunglasses or goggles to protect yourself.
