Would the T5 LED linear fixture cause eye damage?


My question is whether or not these lights would cause eye damage because they are "full spectrum" (NorthLux™ 95 CRI T5 LED Linear Light Fixture 4026.2F.50). I was going to use them on my desk to uplight a wall behind my computers and monitors., so I will be looking at my monitors all day long and the light will shine up on the wall behind the monitors. I do critical color work on my computer. Were these the best choice or should I have ordered something else? 

Regarding eye safety, I can confirm that the full spectrum light output provided by the linear light fixtures does not contain any ultraviolet or infrared wavelengths that could be harmful to the eyes. 

In fact, the output will likely be more beneficial than lighting products that offer a lower CRI, which can often cause eye strain and migraines. As such, we believe that the high CRI output of the linear light fixtures could be a great match for your color-matching purposes. 

That being said, you may alternatively be interested in utilizing our Sidewinder™ LED Flex Strip for D65 Bias Lighting product, which is designed to easily add D65 bias lighting behind monitors and televisions for color-accurate work.
