Narrative:

Approaching lax we were passing over fuelr on the riivr-2 ILS 25L approach. The first officer reported being lased by a green laser. He noted that he'd seen the beam flash outside the aircraft on two quick subsequent passes and about the time he realized that he shouldn't be looking in that direction he received a 'glancing' strike on his right eye. He reported no adverse visual degradation and only minor discomfort which he attributed more to the long day we'd had rather than the laser. He elected to go to the hotel and only seek medical attention should his eye still be uncomfortable after a good night's sleep. The incident (including negative injury) and approximate location of laser source being five miles north of fuelr were reported to sct immediately. Sct passed warnings to other aircraft on approach at the time.
