Does fluorescent lighting bother your eyes?!


Question: Yes, it seems to make me a little dizzy... is that unusual? Maybe it just bothers my eyes for some reason?

You are not alone, and not imagining it.

That problem was recognized in Ontario about 10 years ago, and that type of lighting has been removed from all classrooms since then.

It's because of the very fast flickering that they do. Most people don't notice the flicker, but the brain does.

It's common. I personally strongly suggest wearing soft red-tinted glasses if you're bothered by fluorescents. NoIR sells one variety (for indoor use, unless you're severely sensitive to light in general, you'll want the 59%) http://noir-medical.com/uv_red.htm
