That familiar frustration may not be your age. It could be a failure of your light. Ordinary lamps project a fractured spectrum, starving your eyes of the information they need to see clearly.

Bright isn't enough.
The spectrum is everything.
Our Daylight Wavelength Technology™ closely replicates the full natural visible spectrum. By restoring crucial wavelengths in the right amounts, text becomes sharper and colours are true.

Her ordinary lamp created glare, and she had given up on her passion for reading. I built her a light that solved the problem.
"She finished a chapter that night."
Forty years on, that single purpose means we're now trusted by eye care professionals and readers across 97 countries.

Stop straining. Start seeing.
Ordinary bulbs emit a fractured spectrum with missing wavelengths. Your eyes strain to fill in the gaps, causing fatigue. Our Daylight Wavelength Technology restores those missing colours, so text appears sharper and your eyes work less.
