radhika5 Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 When we work for long hours under a CFL Lamp, it weakens our eyes and affects our health.It contains toxic substances like mercury which can lead to cancer. Guess its time for us to replace CFL bulbs for LEDs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Psycho Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 When we work for long hours under a CFL Lamp, it weakens our eyes and affects our health. Do you have any evidence for that, it sounds like it is just tiredness and working hard that is actually causing problems. Seems similar to the study that showed that using a computer in the dark didn't strain your eyes any more than using it with the light on and it was purely a psychological thing.It contains toxic substances like mercury which can lead to cancer. The is a misnomer unless you start eating the light or smashing them into small pieces causing dust particles there is no problem. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Klaynos Posted March 5, 2009 Share Posted March 5, 2009 LEDs can, and often do, contain harmful chemicals... Do you have any references for "it weakens our eyes and affects our health"? And whether LED illumination is better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
