Frequently Asked Questions
Do I have to take off my glasses when I use the goLITE?
No. This specialized type of light is designed to work with or without glasses.
Are there any major side effects?
The goLITE Pro is safe when used according to recommendations. There have been some reports of tem-
porary headaches or nausea. This is usually resolved by sitting further away from the unit.
Can I get sunburn from using the goLITE?
No. While typical fluorescent bulbs produce small amounts of UV light, BLUEWAVE Technology elimi-
nates all UV light that is responsible for sunburns.
I’ve heard that light can be dangerous. Can the goLITE damage my eyes?
The goLITE emits safe levels of blue light, according to current standards. In fact, your goLITE emits
less blue light than other traditional forms of bright light therapy like full-spectrum, 10,000 lux white
fluorescent light. However, if you suffer from an eye disease or have a history of eye disease in your fam-

temporary eye problems, wait until the problems are resolved before using the goLITE.
