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 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 from the lamp has caused any discomfort, stop using the lamp 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 the initial
several 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.
WARNING:
Certain drugs may induce light sensitivity (e.g., anti-
depressants) 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.

Benefits
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 is triggered by
Natural Spectrum Light. Scientists
have demonstrated that bright light
therapy can act like daylight to
restore balance, mood and energy.
