Science of Light, Inc. (SOL), has translated their SAD (seasonal depression) light therapy technology right onto computer users’ desktops with a smart new product designed to help reduce the epidemic of workplace depressive states (WDS) and the eyestrain, headache and fatigue associated with computer vision syndrome (CVS).CVS affects virtually all computer users and is costing corporate America in excess of 2 billion a year, according to the American Optometric Association.

American Psychiatric Association (APA): Depression Most Costly Illness for Employers (Psychiatric News, Vol.38, Number 14). According to the APA, employers across the country are losing an estimated $44 billion a year in lost productivity directly related to depression. SOL’s new therapeutic task light, aptly named the Intelli Lite, merges superior, glare-free, full spectrum task lighting for high visual acuity, with the wellness benefits of light therapy. Its interactive ergonomic design features three independent light sources which are adjustable to suit individual computer users’ needs.

Lite is so effective it’s often covered by medical insurance when prescribed for depression. “The Intelli Lite is simply the best available work station illumination source for those living and struggling with depression. A high profile design with a true full spectrum light source, the Intelli Lite provides both proper illumination and desk-side treatment,” according to Michael L. Johnson, M.D., Staff Psychiatrist, Clinical Instructor in Psychiatry, Harvard Medical School.
