Can Light Visor(tm) light be harmful to the eyes?
A. All of the clinical trials using the Light Visor(tm) received Institutional Review Board approval for human subjects. Safety is a major factor in receiving such approval. Furthermore, BioBrite commissioned a “hazard analysis” conducted by independent experts. It concluded that the energy emitted by the Light Visor(tm) is far below the threshold limit values recommended in national standards for photobiological safety of lamps and lighting systems. To our knowledge, BioBrite is the only is the only manufacturer of light therapy equipment that has undertaken this type of analysis. Nevertheless, anyone with a known or suspected eye disease should consult an ophthalmologist.
