RAMUN set out strict standards to ensure proper eye protection in cooperation with world-renowned ophthalmologist. Its cutting-edge technologies and design aesthetic allow the company to stay ahead of the curve and continuously innovate.
AIMS OF THE STUDIES
Our eyes consume a great quantity of information daily and our increasing use of different forms of digital media has exposed us to an environment that aggravates eye strain. In such circumstances, high quality lighting is ever more important and RAMUN Amuleto table lamp has been designed to provide ideal lighting conditions through clinical research, comparing and testing both objective and subjective aspects.
The study is designed to produce objective results using a tear film break-up time (TFBUT) test, a slit-lamp exam, a Schirmer's test, an intraocular pressure (IOP) test, a refraction test, and a Log MAR test.
The test evaluates the preference of subjects based on appropriate dimmer control, normal color vision, clear coverage, heat generation, flickering, and light intensity.
The test evaluates the comfort of eyes based on blurriness of handwriting and pictures, double vision, shininess of white paper, effects on the perception of color differences, headache, dizziness, eye fatigue, presence of foreign bodies, itchiness, dry eyes, flickering, blinking, watery eyes, red eyes, burning sensations in the eye, and tightness in the neck.
RoHS (Restriction of the use of Hazardous Substances in EEE) is a directive that restricts the use of hazardous materials, such as lead, mercury, cadmium, hexavalent chromium, polybrominated biphenyl (PBB), and polybrominated diphenyl ether (PBDE), in all electrical and electronic products to promote the use of environmentally friendly resources and efficient waste management in Europe. Electromagnetic waves refer to electric and magnetic fields (EMF) produced by electronic products. Long-term exposure to electromagnetic waves can cause health problems, therefore, many countries around the world have created criteria for evaluating the hazards of electromagnetic fields and set safety standards for electromagnetic waves produced by EE products. RAMUN's products have received RoHS from the world's leading verifier, TÜV and have been designed to maintain safe EMF levels, safeguarding the health and safety of our customers.
A program designed to test the effects on the eyes and skin of the light waves of lighting devices, which can pose high risks of retinal damage, cataract, and skin burn. After recent reports in Europe and North America suggested that non-laser light sources affect the human body, a standard for photobiological safety was developed. This standard defines the limit of exposure time to light sources that can cause photobiological damage to the human skin or retina. Recently, with the release of many high-brightness LEDs, the International Electrotechnical Commission established and stipulated standards for photobiological safety (IEC 62471) to measure and test whether these LEDs are safe for the retina and skin, and classified the different sources into four risk groups depending on the impact on the human body. The criteria requires the labeling of all sources except lasers, according to the risk group of a source. RAMUN's lamps have undergone photobiological safety testing, the optical properties of all light sources have been measured, as well as their effects on the human body accordingly, and finally obtained a best grade certification.
