Its all about how much energy hits the eye, and for infrared lasers you can't assume someone will blink, so you cant use short exposure times.
From the paper, they are pulsing the laser, so the laser is hazardous out to ~1.5m. Pg 5 of their paper goes into detail on the calculations one needs for laser safety.
