Optical mouse and laser mouse are different varieties of digital mice which have overwhelmed ball rollers ones.
Laser mouse is one step ahead of optical mouse.
1) Laser ones are more precise than optical ones and can respond to very little movements also (extra sensitive).
2) This difference is because of the type of light used. An optical mouse uses an LED light while a laser mouse contains a small laser and hence is a bit expensive, comparatively.
3) An LED light in simple mouse is a visible red light while a laser light might not be visible.
