How does lighting affect sight? IKEA lamps and lamps to study without eye fatigue

Eye fatigue, also known as asthenopia, appears when we spend many hours studying or working, especially if we do so in front of an electronic device. We notice that the eyes are tired, dry or irritated due to prolonged visual effort.

In addition to prolonged use of a computer, mobile phone or other devices, it also usually happens if we read or study in low light conditions. Therefore, it is essential to maintain good visual habits to prevent eye fatigue and equip yourself with adequate light.

Now that the new school year is about to start, we must equip our desks or those of our children with a suitable lamp or desk light. At The Buyer we have searched for the best options available at IKEA. Models with flexible arms and adjustable heads to direct the light exactly where we need it.

Our first proposal is the best-selling lamp in the Swedish giant. With the NÄVLINGE model you can work without having to strain your eyes thanks to the fact that it offers directed and direct light.

It has an adjustable arm and screen to be able to direct the light where you want, and offers quality light without reflections. In addition, it is available in white or black so that you can choose the one that best suits your decoration.

The FORSÅ flexo lamp will provide you with the optimal light to be able to study or work comfortably and without straining your eyes.

It is a steel work lamp with a classic style. Its arm and screen can be adjusted to adapt it to our needs. In addition, we can choose between three colors.

If we are looking for an option that presents a more modern aesthetic, at The Buyer we recommend the HÅRTE model.

It is a desk lamp that we can plug into the computer through a USB port or directly to the current. In addition, its flexible tube allows directing the light up or down in order to adapt it to our visual needs.

This is a larger option than the others that we have proposed and, therefore, ideal if we want to illuminate a large desk area.

The ANTIFONI lamp has an adjustable arm and screen to direct the light where we want. In addition, it is very resistant and its simple style adapts to any decoration.

We light our workspace adequately so that our eyes do not suffer and, at the same time, we charge our electronic devices. This is what the NYMÅNE model offers us.

It is a direct and direct light to be able to work comfortably and without straining your eyes and, in addition, its base has an integrated charger that will allow you to charge your phone wirelessly. It also has two USB ports to charge other devices.

If we want a beautiful and elegant lamp, but one that takes care of our eyes while we study or work, the best option is the RANARP model.

It is a flexo lamp that combines black and gold, with a vintage aesthetic, it has a heavy and stable base, adjustable arm and shade, and provides a perfect directed light for reading.

If we are looking for a lamp for the little ones to start reading, drawing or doing crafts, we can choose this fun model that they will love.

It is a model that has an adjustable arm and screen to take care of your eyes, and has been subjected to rigorous tests that guarantee the safety of the little ones.

If we don't have much space on the desk, it is best to choose a lamp that does not have a base. A good example is the TERTIAL model, which is attached to the table with a clamp, or can be installed on the wall.

It is a classic-style steel lamp, and has an adjustable arm and head. A practical option that never goes out of style and is available in four colours.
