Another great way that company’s reap the benefits of LED lighting is the increase in employee productivity and safety that a well light office or warehouse offers. According to energyperformancelighting.com In a 1993 study, researchers found that UV exposure from sitting under fluorescent lights for eight hours is equivalent to one minute of sun exposure. Health problems relating to light sensitivity may become aggravated by the artificial light in sensitive individuals. Most people can relate to how aggravating it is to sit under a flickering florescent light. Researchers have suggested that the UV radiation emitted by this type of lighting had led to an increase in eye diseases, most notably cataracts. Other medical professionals have theorized that retinal damage, myopia or astigmatism can also be attributed side effects of fluorescent light.
Ultraviolet light can also affect valuable artwork like watercolors and textiles. Artwork must be protected by the use of additional glass or transparent acrylic sheets placed between the source of light and the painting. Not to mention the annoying buzz sound and delayed start up most of the fixtures produce.
