In short, our product does not damage the eyes.
RevitalEyes uses red LED light therapy (light-emitting diodes) at a 630nm wavelength. This specific wavelength of red light penetrates to a depth of about 2mm, reaching the skin's deeper layers where collagen and elastin reside. It does not penetrate deep enough to reach or damage delicate eye structures like the retina.
It’s important to understand that different red light therapy (RLT) devices operate at different energy levels. High-energy RLT, like those used in medical settings, can pose a risk to the eyes and often require protective eyewear. RevitalEyes, however, uses low-energy red LED light, similar to what researchers have recently found to be beneficial in studies exploring RLT for dry eye and macular degeneration. That said, we're NOT advising anyone to look directly at the light, regardless of these recent findings.
Lastly, the design of our product ensures the light works on the under-eye area and does not directly target the eyes when worn correctly. You can also close your eyes while positioning the device for added peace of mind, and once in place, feel free to open them again. After all, the device is designed to target the skin in close proximity so the microcurrent can work its magic—our 2-in-1 feature that sets us apart from other brands!
