sun light accompany with rest and fresh air is beneficial for maintenance of health. although scientific and laboratory witnesses have shown the relationship between light exposure and mental health, the live experience of pleasure feeling of sunlight is far more than what is accepted by experimental and observational researches. patient with affective disorders have been treated by increasing ...

background : due to rapid advances in modern technologies such as telecommunication technology, the world has witnessed an exponential growth in the use of digital handheld devices (e.g. smartphones and tablets). this drastic growth has resulted in increased global concerns about the safety of these devices. smartphones, tablets, laptops, and other digital screens emit high levels of short-wave...

Since the early days of human life on the Earth, our skin has been exposed to different levels of light. Recently, due to inevitable consequences of modern life, humans are not exposed to adequate levels of natural light during the day but they are overexposed to relatively high levels of artificial light at night. Skin is a major target of oxidative stress and the link between aging and oxidat...

treatment with antimicrobial chemotherapeutic agents, alternative approaches such as lethal photosensitization are being used. the aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of visible light and laser beam radiation in conjugation with three different photosensitizers on the survival of two main periodontopathogenic bacteria including porphyromonas gingivalis and fusobacterium nucleatum in di...

introduction blue light is a part of the spectrum with the highest energy content, which can reach the retina. the damage that it can cause to the retina is called photochemical or blue-light retinal injury. for the retinal injury assessment of the photochemical and aphakic retinal hazards in the wavelength range of 300-700 nm, use of effective spectral radiance limits (w.m-2.sr-1) seems to be ...
