Human Factors
As I was on my final approach to Runway 30; an unknown person on the ground shined a green laser at the aircraft. The laser flashed my left eye and caused temporary night blindness. I turned the aircraft northeast to avoid the light; and selected an alternate Runway 26 to land on.
PC-12 Single Pilot reported a laser event during final approach which caused the Pilot to experience temporary night blindness.
