AIM To examine light-emitting-diode (LED)-induced retinal neuronal cell damage and its
wavelength-driven pathogenic mechanisms. METHODS Sprague-Dawley rats were …

Purpose The purpose of this study was to evaluate a retinal degeneration (RD) model
induced by exposing mice to a blue light-emitting diode (LED), which led to photoreceptor …

Background: Light-emitting diodes (LEDs) deliver higher levels of blue light to the retina than
do conventional domestic light sources. Chronic exposure to high-intensity light (2,000 …

The aim of study was to establish a mouse model of blue light emitting diode (LED) light-
induced retinal damage and to evaluate the effects of the antioxidant N-acetylcysteine …

Spectra of “white LEDs” are characterized by an intense emission in the blue region of the
visible spectrum, absent in daylight spectra. This blue component and the high intensity of …

Ageing and alteration of the functions of the retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) are at the
origin of lost of vision seen in age‐related macular degeneration (AMD). The RPE is known …

To save energy, the European directives from the Eco-design of Energy Using Products
(2005/32/CE) have recommended the replacement of incandescent lamps by more …

Purpose: Retinitis pigmentosa (RP) is a blinding neurodegenerative disease of the retina
that can be affected by many factors. The present study aimed to analyze the effect of …

Our eyes are increasingly exposed to light from the emitting diode (LED) light of video
display terminals (VDT) which contain much blue light. VDTs are equipped with televisions …

Background: A project originally developed for NASA plant growth experiments in space
demonstrating the Light-Emitting Diode (LED) could promote the wound healing. Further …
