Life is just a State of Mind.

Sorry that I probably butchered the spelling of it....

But I'm curious, where do they see out of?

NO ONE SHALL QUESTION THE -blam!-NESS OF MY PINK HOODIE

a small dot in the top left corner that actually changes color depending on your visor setting

I am not sure, but most likely the little dot on the helmet is a camera that connects to a screen in side the helmet. If I am correct, the UNSC probably made this helmet to see in infrared and night vision. (Please correct me if I'm wrong)

It's a byproduct of the spartan laser program, I guess it protects the users eyes from the intense light from the laser

This. It protects the user's face from blinding light and also radiation given off by the laser - with a regular visor, they'd probably end up blind in one eye, and with a very strong suntan on the right side of their face.

That 'visor' isn't really a visor, it's too small to see out of.
My guess is that it's a wide-angle camera lens that feeds a projected HUD inside the boxy superstructure of the helmet. It would probably be heavily polarised to protect against aforementioned intermittent light flashes and radiation flares.

NOTE: correct spelling is GUNGNIR. I've seen people spell it worse, don't worry.

The hemlet was designed for artillery spotting so it is a high res camera linked to an internal screen which probably has infra red, ultraviolet, neutron dectecting ect so it can indentify targets at range in any conditions and relay the info to the artillery command.

Silence fills the empty grave, now that I have gone
But my mind is not at rest, for questions linger on

It's a camera that zoom all the way into an enemies soul.

The helmet is also great for spotting babes down the street.
