But the lamp lamp is different, because not all lighting devices are able to meet the hygienic norms that affect vision: sufficient illumination of the working surface, spectrum of transmitted light, protection of the eyes from direct light and its direction. In fact, the choice of a table lamp should be approached quite seriously, as schoolchildren spend a lot of time at the desk, and it's not always possible to do lessons in natural light, and an "incorrect" reading lamp can ruin the child's vision. The tips given in the article will tell you which one to choose a table lamp for a schoolboy.
Features of the plafond
When choosing a table lamp, you need to pay attention to the shape of its plafond. Well if it has the form of a trapezoid, that is, narrow at the base and wide at the edges. It is this shape that provides maximum and comfortable lighting for the eyes. Pay attention to the color of the plafond, which is of no small importance. Bright colors will distract the child's attention from doing homework, so the choice should stay on table lamps of calm tones. The most optimal color is green, which contributes to a beneficial effect on the eyesight.
You can find plafonds made of different materials. When choosing a plafond from plastic, look at its internal surface: the lamp should not be adjacent to the walls of the plafond, and should be smaller than the plafond itself. Otherwise, with prolonged use of the lighting fixture, the walls of the plafond will begin to melt, which can lead to a fire. The plafond, made of metal, also has its drawbacks: it is the rapid heating of the lamp. A child can get burned if he needs to unwind the plafond.
Lamp Specifications
When choosing a table lamp, special attention should be paid to the light source. It is he who will influence your child's vision. Now the usual incandescent lamps are replaced by fluorescent lamps, which have such qualities as energy saving and less heat. But lamps of this type do not always give a good light, which must match the solar one. Therefore, the choice of a desk lamp should stop at the one that gives a comfortable soft yellow light, only such a lamp will cost a little more.
It is better to choose matte light bulbs for the lighting fixture, which do not affect your vision so much. The power of the bulb should be 100W, and if you need power just below, you can simply replace the light bulbs in the lighting fixture.
When choosing a lamp, consider this important point: the bulb should not go beyond the edges of the lamp's luminaire, because the protruding lamp will blind the child, and this, of course, has a negative impact on the eyesight.
Also, do not paint a light bulb in any color, in which case the light will be dim and the baby's eyes will be in constant tension and quickly get tired. Discard the purchase of a fluorescent lamp that gives a flickering light that is unpleasant to the eye.
Table Lamp Design Features
Of course, the question of the design and the pivoting mechanism is secondary, and depends on the interior of the room, on the taste of the buyer, and on the financial possibilities. Choose a table lamp with a folding tripod that will allow you to fix the light in a position convenient for you. You yourself can adjust the illumination of the surface by approximating or removing the lamp. The higher the plafond, the light is less bright and the area of illumination increases.
Tripods of lamps are wire and hinged. But the latter are not very long-lived, as these "knee-bones" often break down, especially if your child has technical inclinations.
The base of the table lamp, the stand, should not be shiny or glossy. Because the incident light will be reflected and "beat" in the eyes of the child, which creates an unnecessary burden for the eyesight. Very convenient fixtures, which have a screw fastening. Such a lamp does not take up much space, is attached to any surfaces, and can be rotated in any direction.
It is important to understand that one table lamp will not be enough to work at the table, you need to include a common light, which should not be too bright.
