Best Practices For Lighting With Paint Correction For Vision
Hey Guys,
As with everything its always good to practice safe techniques for longevity of our health. Normally when I use something with high sound like a buffer I like to have my earphones on, however with lightning I have them at a corner lighting the panel during polishing. Is it safe to look at the light? Is there a more cautious method that we can use to prolong our vision long term? Just like a mechanic using jack stands instead of the mechanic lifting the car up with the jack, its a safer method. OR wearing gloves when working dirty. I dont want to kill my eyes at an early age because I wanted the perfect finish, but then I dont want to miss a spot either especially during paint correction.
I think safety and long term health is always first factor but it doesn't come up much anywhere.
Feel free to add in some techniques.

Eye health...
First:
Have to take the entire electromagnetic
spectrum's frequencies into consideration.
(Of course that includes the frequencies
of "visible light".)
Next:
An understanding that: all "light" is radiation...
but only certain frequencies can cause harm.
That is to say:
The closer it gets to the UV/high-frequency
end of the spectrum...and beyond...does the
potential exist to cause damage to the retina.
The rest of the spectrum doesn’t.
{Besides that:
The human eye has a cornea and lens
that act as built-in light filters.}
•In conclusion:
-If a person doesn't stare at a visible light
source...from just a few inches away...
for an overextended period of time;
-takes a "look-away break" every 30-45
minutes (also helps the entire body to relax);
-wears corrective lenses (when the need arises);
-and always dons safety eye-wear; then:
-their eyes/eyesight should remain healthy
enough to last their entire intended life-cycle.

I have the Flex inspection flashlight and couple portable white lights. All of my tool box/bags and locker have safety glasses.
