Not a stretch at all, he clearly had both eyes open and actually had to perform some reaction to actually tell which path Hanged Man was going. Knowing trajectory is not that important either, I can point a gun in your face, tell you the bullet's going to hit you in the temple and when I press the trigger you would be too slow to actually intercept the bullet.

The problem with fictional laser beams is that they commonly don't behave like light, hence why they are assumed never to be moving at the speed of light. Different story this time around however. There is no reason to assume that the reflection of sunlight (RSOA), Ultra Violet Rays and rays of light from a star is not moving at lightspeed. Especially when the latter's beams where bouncing off Silver Chariots sword which is exactly how light would behave in that scenario.
