To use the patented* Sunnex low-intensity Lo-
LIGHT,
place it approximately 18-30 inches from the eyes. Room lighting must
be dim, but the Sunnex Lo-
LIGHT
is uniquely designed to be used in
conjunction with a computer monitor or while watching television, and provides
sufficient light for those who wish to use it for reading.
For comfort, the Sunnex Lo- LIGHT
is
equipped with an electronic ballast to eliminate flickering
from fluorescent bulbs which occurs when used with a magnetic ballast.

Like other light therapy lamps, the Sunnex Lo-
LIGHT
is
found to work best for most people when used in the morning, as near to
awakening as reasonable. We recommend starting with close to one hour
exposure, and after a couple of weeks when
the beneficial effects of the light therapy are realized, reducing the daily
exposure time. Most people find they can shorten the time to 30-40 minutes, without a
reduction in effect. However, the time when light therapy is most effective can vary with the individual. While most
people respond best to morning treatment, others respond better to evening light exposure
(between 8-9 pm). Some people respond to either morning or evening exposure.
At
Sunnex Biotechnologies we would be happy to give you some general
suggestions about timing the use of your
Sunnex Lo- LIGHT
lamp,
though modes of use vary from person to person and ideally should be
established in consultation with a therapist.
