Question Answer
How often should I
use the EnergyLight?
We recommend that you start taking daily light exposures for 5 to 7
days in a row, preferably in the morning. Most people start to feel more
energetic within 5 days. If you do not notice any improvement within
that time, continue using the EnergyLight for another 7 to 14 days and
make the exposures longer. Do not give up too soon, since it may take
up to 2 weeks before you notice any signicant improvement. However,
if using the EnergyLight causes you to become too active, we advise you
to reduce the light exposure.
Can I use the
EnergyLight if I am on
medication?
If you are on prescribed medication, we advise you to consult your
doctor rst before you use the EnergyLight or use any other form of
light. Certain medicines cannot be used in combination with light
exposure. Anti-depressants combined with light exposure may result in
eye damage.
Can I use the
EnergyLight if I have
eye problems?
If you have eye problems, you should consult your doctor or
ophthalmologist before you use the EnergyLight or undergo any other
form of light exposure. There are certain eye and eye-related conditions
that may respond unfavorably to light.

skin allergy?

safest to consult your doctor before you use the EnergyLight or undergo
any other form of light.

front of a switched-on
EnergyLight for a
prolonged period of
time?

harmful. However, do not use the light after 8 p.m.
Do I have to wear any
sunscreen lotion?

lters out all UV rays; it is therefore safe for your skin and does not give
you a tan. If you use the EnergyLight in accordance with the instructions
in the user manual, you do not have to worry about tanning or other
skin reactions.
