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 - Turn on the lamp and position it about 45cm/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 it 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. For your initial sessions, you should monitor the degree
of any discomfort and accordingly adjust the time used and lamp location.
WARNING: Some people may experience light sensitivity to fluorescent
lighting. Discontinue use if you experience any discomfort. Prior to using,
follow the "Device Pretest" directions, shown above.
WARNING: Certain medications (e.g., anti-depressants) may induce
light sensitivity 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.

Verilux HappyLights provide
broad spectrum light therapy
to stimulate all of the eye's
photoreceptors: cones, rods and
the newly discovered melanopsin.
HappyLights offer photopic light
(primarily stimulating the cones)
and scotopic light (primarily
stimulating the rods) to reduce the
size of the pupil, relaxing the eye
for more comfortable light therapy.
Melanopsin helps set the body's
daily cycles and can be triggered by
Natural Spectrum Light. Scientists
have demonstrated that bright light
therapy can act like daylight to
restore balance, mood and energy.
