World Sight Day


World Sight Day, 11th October 2012, is an important day. Not only to celebrate the wonders of sight, but also to focus the world’s attention on blindness, visual impairment, and rehabilitation of the visually impaired.
Sight is an incredibly important factor when it comes to lighting. We know how important it is, and we also know how easy it is to strain your eyes under dim lighting. You can take various steps in caring for your eyes, and potentially eliminating problems with sight later down the line, one of those steps is working under ‘eye-friendly’ lighting.
When it comes to designing our lamps, we ensure that every single one offers the same unrivalled bright white light that offers a full spectrum light for our customers to enjoy. By avoiding lights that flicker and produce glare, you avoid those sore, tired eyes that people often associate with working under a lamp. You will also notice that our lamps help you see more than you could before – small details and contrasts will become visible and colour matching becomes much easier. When working late into the night or for long periods of time, you will no longer notice those red itchy eyes that can take the fun out of your favourite hobbies.

When we worked with low-vision artist Barrie Goodfellow, he described how using his Daylight Lamp (Professional Artists Lamp) he was able to see his work in ways he hadn’t before, and his art was improved as a result.
So for anybody who enjoys crafts, arts, model making, puzzling, writing, reading, crosswords and more – take a moment to reflect on World Sight Day and the difference a Daylight Lamp has made to you, or the difference it could make!

Why The Daylight Company?

For most of us a light bulb is a light bulb. But in fact not all light bulbs are created equal when it comes to providing quality lighting. In almost all cases, you will want to be sure you are buying a “full spectrum” light bulb or tube.

The Daylight Company gives you all the benefits of full spectrum light. But why is full spectrum light so good?

Here are five reasons why:
1) Eye Comfort – “Full spectrum” bulbs and tubes enable you to see a complete range of colors with ease and comfort. These bulbs let you work for hours on the most detailed and difficult projects and without headaches and red-eyes. Working with full spectrum light is as relaxing and natural as a walk in the park.

2) Full Spectrum and Color – Another benefit of full spectrum bulbs and tubes is that they enable you to see colors just the way they are without distortion, glare or washed out shades.

3) See Details as Never Before – High quality, full spectrum light helps you see better. You’ll find they make it much easier to read small print or see details in hobbies or other small projects. Full-spectrum lighting also gives you a much needed assist as you get older and your eyes naturally lose some of their strength.

4) Save Energy – It is best to buy energy-saving full spectrum fluorescent bulbs and tubes or LED lighting. They will consume at least 80% less energy and last about ten times longer than a standard incandescent light bulb.


5) Lower heat - Be sure to buy a bulb that offers low heat technology for ultimate comfort and safety. You do not want to risk burning yourself if you accidentally touch the shade or tube.

There is one place you can find a bulb or tube that offers all of these benefits – The Daylight Company™. Visit our website at: http://uk.daylightcompany.com/
