What is color rendering and why does it matter?
A. Color rendering is just as important as brightness when it comes to selecting to right headlight for you. Color rendering is measures of how well a light will actually represent the colors of an object when it is illuminated. Some lights are better than others in this category. For instance, metal halide lights originally designed for industrial use have a very low color rendering index (towards the blue-green side) and may not be best for clinical procedures. Xenon and halogen lights, on the other hand, provide better color rendering for clinical work.
