  2. Fluorescent lamps and health - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamps_and_health

    New lighting systems have not used magnetic ballasts since the turn of the century, however some older installations still remain. Fluorescent lamps with magnetic ballasts flicker at a normally unnoticeable frequency of 100 or 120 Hz (twice of the utility frequency; the lamp is lit on both the positive and negative half-wave of a cycle).

    Studies have shown that fluorescent lighting (which flickers 100 times a second) is twice as likely to cause headaches in office workers as non-flickering lights. [ 7 ] No similar studies have been conducted into the effect of LED (light-emitting diode) lights on sufferers of photophobia but, because LED flickering is "even more pronounced", it ...

[ 1 ] It is a disorientation -, vertigo -, and nausea -inducing effect of a strobe light flashing at 1 Hz to 20 Hz, approximately the frequency of human brainwaves .

  6. Temporal light artefacts - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temporal_light_artefacts

    Temporal light artefacts (TLAs) are undesired effects in the visual perception of a human observer induced by temporal light modulations. Two well-known examples of such unwanted effects are flicker and stroboscopic effect. Flicker is a directly visible light modulation at relatively low frequencies (< 80 Hz) and small intensity modulation levels.

  7. Fluorescent lamp - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorescent_lamp

    The spectrum of light emitted from a fluorescent lamp is the combination of light directly emitted by the mercury vapor, and light emitted by the phosphorescent coating. The spectral lines from the mercury emission and the phosphorescence effect give a combined spectral distribution of light that is different from those produced by incandescent ...

    Flashing lights (such as strobe lights) or rapidly changing or alternating images (as in clubs, around emergency vehicles, near overhead fans, in action movies or television programs, etc.) are examples of patterns in time that can trigger seizures, and these are the most common triggers. Static spatial patterns such as stripes and squares may ...
