What I posted is not my work. My interest originated with neuropharmacology and my school’s work with L’Oréal in development of an in vitro alternative to the Draize Test.

I have received the same instructions from my ophthalmologist (eye Doctor) - that blue spectrum LED's can damage eyesight; specifically, they stimulate macular degeneration. He wears tinted lenses.

Perhaps my Doctor is merely superstitious.

I do believe he knows more about eyesight than I do.
