Vision matters,
Optimizing the visual environment for human health and performance.
For decades, we have focused on creating energy-efficient lighting. More recently, the conversation has shifted towards healthy lighting, and sometimes human centric light, or integrative lighting. These are important advances.
Lighting is only one component of the visual environment.
People don't experience lighting. They experience the entire visual environment.
People experience the interaction between lighting, daylight, displays, glare, reflections, visual complexity, and workspace design. Together, these factors influence wellbeing, focus, and performance, cause eyestrain, headaches, and migraine.
At VERAM, we help organizations understand, assess, and optimize the entire visual environment.
Lighting has a powerful impact on our health, comfort, and ability to perform at work.
Poor visual environments, with glare, flicker, or incorrect light levels, greatly increase the risk of eyestrain, headaches, migraines, and neck or shoulder pain.
These issues affect up to 80% of people in typical workplaces and can reduce performance by around 10%.
Creating a healthy lighting environment is one of the most effective ways to improve well-being, focus, and overall workplace satisfaction.
