Photoretinitis
Sensitivity verses wavelength
The retina is more easily damaged by ultra-violet and violet-blue light than it is by light with longer
wavelengths. The
Stellaris® PC
Vision Enhancement System incorporates filters to remove ultra-violet light
and violet light, but it is not possible to eliminate more of the phototoxic influence without significantly
discoloring the light output.
