Frequently Asked Questions
Are there any major side effects?
The Aurora LightPad is completely safe. Some people have initially experienced anxiety,
headaches or early awakening. Most of these symptoms disappear with a few days and can be
avoided by starting with a reduced session length, or doubling the distance from the light for
the first week.
Can I use the Aurora LightPad more than once a day?
For most people, using the Aurora LightPad once a day is sufficient. It is important to keep
in mind that using the light too late in the evening may adversely affect your sleep.
Do I have to take my glasses off when I use the Aurora LightPad?
No. Reading or prescription glasses and contacts do not reduce the effect of light. However,
you should not use transition lenses, tinted glasses or sunglasses.
Can I get a sunburn from using the light?
No. The Aurora LightPad uses white LED lights that do not produce UV light.
Does the light box interfere with prescription meds that require me to stay out of the sun?
The LED bulbs do not have UV output, so there is no risk of burning or damage to the skin
or eyes. Double check with the pharmacy or your physician to make sure that it is the UV rays
that you are to avoid.
