I was being sincere. The read would lead to the understanding that the sun is far more of a threat to you or plants.

And a redkneck example would be : "How many factory workers in insanely overlit HID environments are getting sunburn?" Although tinted UV A and B safety glasses were recommended if not required.

Sucks man sorry to hear that... I get eye floaters from time to time, but that started when I had bad tinnitus and only slept 50 hours in 2 months... Now I turn down the blue light on the tv and computer and wear blue light glasses.
Removing the 750W MH vanity from my bathroom. Messing family up. GRRR!

What are the signs of eye damage from an HPS?
general deteriation of eyesight. although hps isnt as bad as the uv from metal halide or uv from led lights, its intencity is enough to cause eye problems. some people will get visability damage to the eyes, some will suffer long term damage to the eyes. its all to do with light intencity with hps, and as i previously mentioned, uv from some led lights and especialy meyal halide are double bad, light intencity and uv damage
