| Sep 7, 2012 at 15:52 | comment | added | Salain | -1 here as well, intrinsically sensitive ganglion cells require an outrageously large amount of light to activate them. They are not, at all, relevant to a discussion about night vision. | |
| May 10, 2012 at 11:57 | comment | added | Ilmari Karonen | -1, sorry. This is a nice answer, but it's not an answer to the question asked here. | |
| May 3, 2012 at 14:15 | comment | added | Shep | @GianpaoloR, I don't want to turn this into a camping gear (or advertising) discussion, but yes, they are. | |
| May 3, 2012 at 14:07 | comment | added | Gianpaolo R | @Shep 1) sorry I'm not aware about consequences on night-vision, are companies selling red lamps claiming improvements on night-vision? 2) Red light is the only one passing through our tissues, but lamps are used after sunset when you are still awake. | |
| May 3, 2012 at 12:54 | comment | added | Armatus | Thinking about it, since our eyes are closed - wouldn't any light become red-ish anyway because it would go through our (blood-filled) lids? | |
| May 3, 2012 at 12:49 | comment | added | Shep | @Armatus, I agree that it will probably affect my sleep patterns, but this answer says nothing about night-vision, that's what I'm curious about. | |
| May 3, 2012 at 12:43 | comment | added | Armatus | As I understand it, I would summarise this as "probably - maybe not your sleep pattern but your sleep quality will probably be affected". | |
| May 3, 2012 at 12:27 | comment | added | Shep | Very interesting, so a white light may mess up my sleep patterns? So is the answer to the night-vision question "no", "maybe", or "inconclusive"? | |
