Benefits

Verilux Natural Spectrum® light is just the right kind of illumination, easily absorbed by the eye, efficiently cueing the body to improve mood, energy and function while reducing light sensitivity, eyestrain and fatigue.

Unlike most artificial light, Verilux Natural Spectrum light illuminates in the broader scotopic range, stimulating more of the eyes’ photoreceptors without extreme brightness and glare. Like daylight, this scotopically enhanced light allows optimum visual stimulation without oversaturation.

Device Pretest

To help determine if you have sensitivity to light treatment, we recommend that you perform this pretest upon first use of this device:

Step 1 - Start this test with the comfort lens. Turn on the lamp and position it about 18 inches from your face. (Do not look directly into the lamp.)

Step 2 - Operate the lamp for approximately 10 minutes and turn it off. If the light has caused any discomfort, stop using the lamp and consult a doctor. If you have no discomfort, you may consider gradually decreasing the distance from the lamp and increasing the use time, which results in more lamp intensity and greater effect. You also may change from the comfort lens to the high-energy lens and repeat the device pretest. For your initial sessions, you should monitor the degree of any discomfort and accordingly adjust the time used, lens used and lamp location.

WARNING: Some people may experience light sensitivity to fuorescent lighting. Discontinue use if you experience any discomfort.

WARNING: Certain drugs may induce light sensitivity (e.g., anti- depressants) which may result in discomfort or a level of hyperactivity. Consult with your health care provider before using this product.

WARNING: If you have a pre-existing eye condition, contact your health care provider prior to use.
