Various skin and ocular pathologies can result from overexposure to ultraviolet radiation blue light. Assessing the potential harm of exposure these light sources requires quantifying energy received specific target tissue. Despite a well-established understanding light-disease relationship, quantification in diverse lighting scenarios proves challenging due multitude continuous variation orientation receiving tissues (skin eyes). This complexity makes determination health hazards associated...
The role of eyelashes in ocular radiation protection has been hypothesized for some time. There is however no quantitative knowledge the shading they provide. provided by investigated this study. A numerical model able to simulate an arbitrary source light illuminate a 3-dimensional head with realistic details was used purpose. eyelashes' filtering effect studied various incidence angles, diameter and density cilia. Using average values literature define their characteristics, we found that...
. It is prescribed to determine blue-light hazard (BLH) weighted radiances,
Exposure to ambient ultraviolet radiation is associated with various ocular pathologies. Estimating the irradiance received by eyes therefore essential from a preventive perspective and study relationship between light exposure eye diseases. However, measuring on surface challenging. Current methods are either approximations or rely simplified setups. Additionally, factors like head rotation further complicate measurements for prolonged exposures. This proposes novel numerical approach...
