Product Description

The light you need...where you need it. The luminette® was designed to provide light in sufficient quantity, at the right wavelength, to the part of the eye richest in receptors. The innovative design of the Luminette® enables it to concentrate light beams in a precise spot, specifically the lower half of the retina, whatever the direction of the gaze and whatever the position of the head. Devices without this system have the major drawback of varying the light intensity received by the eyes depending on their position relative to the emitting surface (oblique rays, variable distance). The effectiveness of the luminette is linked both to its design, which ensures excellent compliance with treatment, and to its technical qualities. Optical qualities: The patented holographic concentration optical device considerably increases the number of light rays passing through the pupil, thus producing a higher cornea to retina transfer coefficient that that of other products currently available on the market. The holographic device sends the effective rays to the lower half of the retina over a surface area of 1.2 cm2 - the area most favorable to treatment where the ganglion cells responsible for nerve transmission are located. Spectral characteristics Dominance of blue photons, which are the most energetic and the most efficient. This wavelength (468 nm) corresponds to a 100% suspension of melatonin secretion. Recent research shows that, as far as the retinal receptors are concerned, the effect is maximal so that a shorter treatment time is possible. Energy characteristics The emitted light beam provides between 550 et 650 microwatts / cm2 of illumination to the cornea. This is the minimum efficacy level for treating seasonal depression. Comfort The design, size, weight, and ergonomics of the Luminette® were especially researched and built for optimally comfortable utilization, even by wearers of eyeglasses and contact lenses.
