Question
Can I get
sunburn from
using the
goLITE BLU
energy light?
I have heard
that light can be
dangerous. Can
the goLITE
BLU energy
light damage my
eyes?
Should I use the
goLITE BLU
energy light
every day?
Answer
No, the technology used in the goLITE BLU energy
light eliminates all UV light.
The goLITE BLU energy light emits safe levels of blue
light, according to current standards. However, if you
suffer from an eye disease or have a history of eye
disease in your family, consult your ophthalmologist
before you use the goLITE BLU energy light. If you
have a temporary eye problem, wait until it is
resolved before you use the goLITE BLU energy
light.
The goLITE BLU energy light is safe if used according
to the instructions. The appliance is free from any
ultraviolet light risk to the eye and it produces a safe,
diffused field of light. The appliance has been tested
for ocular safety.
As with any bright light source, do not look into the
light too long. The beneficial reaction happens when
the photoreceptors in the eye are stimulated. Since
these photoreceptors lie in the periphery of the eye,
you get a better result if you place the goLITE BLU
energy light at a slight angle to your face.
You can use the goLITE BLU energy light daily,
especially during the winter months. Many people
find that they do not need the light in summer.
Others use it year-round because they spend most
of their time indoors and do not get the right kind of
light signals to regulate their circadian rhythm
properly.
