low glare non-fluorescent true color would be the ideal, I like neodynium bulbs myself.

Where possible, use compact fluorescent light bulbs. Those funny-looking bulbs produce the same amount of light by using 1/4 of the electricity. Plus, they last for years and years without burning out.\nTurn off the TV when no one is watching it. The same goes for computers, radios and stereos - if no one using it, turn it off. Turn off all the appliances at the surge protector/control strip - that four- or six-plug extension chord that you plug all your computer things into. Some devices, like modems or other networking boxes are drawing small amounts of power all the time. Check with your folks first, but the best thing to do is turn them ALL off at the surge protector\n\netc,etc----

I think combination of both looks  best ..... \n\nUse white for icicle style lights hanging from gutters. Then multi-colered lights arounds windows, trees, fences, etc. \n\nHappy Holidays : )

It's not the cold, it's the lack of sunlight. If you can afford it, invest in a full-spectrum lamp.

I use a halogen desk lamp. I use sun glasses, they are not dark glasses though, they are almost rose colored glasses. I feel a good difference. I have never tried the real light therapy. I hope this works for you.

Your condition is well known to those of us who are ion sensitve as well as color range sensitive. I personally have a problem with it and my immune system is very bad due to genetics. I suggest you counter act this feeling with exposure to natural light when ever possible, make sure you use sun screen and get full spectrum lighting above your desk at work. Your employer will need this information to get the point across. http://www.naturallighting.com/\n\n\nIt is well known in the Holistic Medicine community that regular exposure to fluorescent lighting can cause or contribute to health problems. Many years ago, I studied the work of Dr. John Ott. He was a pioneer in the study of the health effects of lighting and magnetic & electric fields on plants and animals. He conducted many studies on plants and humans showing adverse health effects.\n\nDr. Ott conducted research using natural lighting in a chickenhouse that produced outstanding results. He installed special radiation-shielded, full-spectrum lights in schools to show a significant reduction in behavioral problems, learning disabilities, and academic improvement. (See Academic Therapy, Volume 10, No. 1, 1973. Also, see the comparison between a well-designed study and a poorly design, industry-sponsored study in Journal of Abnormal Child Psychology, Volume 6, No. 3, 1978.) Some of the causes of health problems from regular, extended exposure to fluorescent light could include:\n\n\nLack of shielding for certain types of radiation (e.g., x-rays) given off. \nSpectrum of fluorescent light is far different than natural lighting. \nLack of natural levels of ultra-violet light exposure from fluorescent lighting. \nRegular, extended exposure to fluorescent lighting has been implicated in other disorders as well. In the Volume 7, 1985 Special Subject Issue of "The International Journal of Biosocial Research", the work of John Ott was discussed in more detail. Case histories were presented showing the how the lack of natural lighting and/or exposure to fluorescent lighting might contribute to health conditions such as infertility, tumors, etc. More recent research has shown the importance of light on the pineal gland which affects the brain and hormonal system. Because of this, one should expect that regular, extended exposures to fluorescent lighting may contribute to health problems.\n\nAt first, Dr. Ott's work was ridiculed (as innovative work often is). Later in his career he received an honorary Doctor of Science degree from Loyola University and the Grand Honors Award of the National Eye Research Foundation. Much of Dr. Ott's research was detailed in the books, Health and Light : The Effects of Natural and Artificial Light on Man and Other Living Things and Light, Radiation, and You How to Stay Healthy.\n\nExposure to natural lighting and avoidance of fluorescent lighting can be enormously healing for some people. For others, it should be considered a good way to help prevent the development of chronic health problems. The Ott Biolight Systems web page is a commercial web site which includes some additional information about health and lighting.

Put a piece of tape over the light

Bright, low hanging light bulbs. Usually hanging down over desk, made eyes sore.

take plenty of eye breaks before they get too tired. just close your eyes for a few minutes and let them rest and pick something in the office you can look at for a few seconds to keep from staring at the screen all the time buy some natural tears eye drops or some other kind of eye drops that sooth the eyes, only use these by the directions on the box. Read the eyedrop boxes and find the one that is for soothing tired eyes

Do you mean rheostat like the ones that control light levels? Those can be found at any good hardware store.

There are a number of products on the market that will do what you want, and be certified and safe.\n\nMake sure you get a warm LED though: cool white LEDs produce a terrible colour of light.\n\nhttp://www.theledlight.com/120-VAC-LEDbulbs.html
