Like the LED6000 Polarizing Light, it is also fitted with 3M’s Polarizing Filter Technology, which consists of a 3M proprietary optical film to reduce glare by up to 80%. While most other lamps allow both comfortable and harmful light to enter, the 3M polarizing optical film only filters comfortable light through; at the same time, it converts the harmful rays into optimal lighting as well.
As such, only optimal light reaches the eyes - this not only minimizes the immediate eye strain to allow for longer hours of comfortable reading, but also decreases risk of long-term effects such as cataracts and macular degeneration {a leading cause of vision loss where a small central portion of the retina, known as the macula, deteriorates}.
Well, according to a U.S. study, for good circadian health, you should have higher amounts of light from cooler light sources at least two to three hours in the morning to mimic the sunrise, followed by a tapering off in light intensity towards evening hours, to a warmer and gentle light source to encourage calm and relaxation.
When Lil Pumpkin is studying or when I'm working during the day, we use Cool White for increased alertness, and when I'm reading a book before sleeping, I'll use Warm White to help me wind down for the day as it encourages calmness and relaxation.
The same touch control also enables us to adjust the light intensity. For example, we can use higher lux levels for more detailed-focused activities such as studying or rainbow-looming that require brighter illumination, and lower lux levels for light reading in bed at night to relax.
The high-intensity light is even good enough for the boy to do his vet surgery in..
3M LED P1610 Polarizing Task Light is available in white and black. 3M has a wide range of polarizing lights and there are other table and floor lamps available with different prices and lighting qualities for everyone so check them out and make that change for the benefit of your eyes!

I have 2 3M lights at home and we like them . Bright enough and not too glaring. Plus can adjust the angle well. A good buy

Wow the light looks good, and the base isn't too large - some take up so much table space!
This actually looks very good and proper light required while studying. I am thinking to consider this one for my study table.
Just the right time to read this post! I was searching for a table lamp for my kids. After reading your review, am going to get one! :) Thanks for sharing...
We use our dining table as the homework station so we just have the usual overhead lighting - but yeah it's important to invest in a good reading light for desk work.
Good price when compared to the surgery light heh.
That looks like a wonderful light. Isaak has one of those lights that puts out real sunlight. Sometimes I steal it. It really helps when I'm working on artwork.
I never had a reading light before but it certainly seems like a good idea to invest in one.
LED lights are good and 3M ones are the best. We've got 2 'long' ones and I think the circle one here look good and is probably a good space saver too? I find that when I use LED lights do not tire the eyes that much and are quite comfy to read with. Long lasting too! Excellent choice.
This would be a great light for when Mariah starts college this fall. Looks like a great desk light!
This light is a wonderful all purpose reading light which offers useful options and control. Thank you for sharing info. Have finally found a suitable lighting option for our kids.
