Eyelash viper questions

I've been looking into the eyelash vipers and I seem to be getting some mixed messages and thought I'd ask the experts. How many species of "eyelash" viper are there? What is the relative toxicity of the venom (I've read on some venom reports that their venom is quite toxic and in other places that it is usually not life threatening)? What are the primary venom properties (eg. Neurotoxic, Hemotoxic, Cardiotoxic, etc...)? Would anyone out there consider the "eyelash" viper to be a comparitively "safe" first hot (compared to say a naja)? Thanks.
