We generally recommend NOT looking directly at the LEDs, especially if you have any light sensitivities, but rest assured that TrueLight products do not produce any damaging UV light and are generally not dangerous. They're simply quite bright and may be uncomfortable to look at! If you are sensitive to light or are concerned, we suggest keeping your eyes closed/looking away from the device while it is near the face. Please feel free to use sunglasses/goggles as you see fit, or if your doctor recommends it.
