HI, My beardies viv is right next to my bed so I was just wondering if it can hurt human eyes if you look into it

Thanks

I don't know, I have my tank near my bed, and my eyes haven't seemed to have gotten any worse (I already have horrible eyesight, so who knows).

So long as the light is being filtered through the glass on the tank it wont bother your eyesight. it is true that prolonged exposure to strong uv light can damage human sight but unless your glass is specially treated (which 99.9% of pet tank glass is not) to allow UV rays to pass through you are fine.
