Creation of the first cabinet for a student is not easy task. Schoolchildren spend a lot of time at their workplace. According to statistics, almost 90% of vision problems, children acquire in school years when a long time is sitting at the desk and the table, performing training tasks. Proper lighting of the student schoolchild in principle should be the same as the place of an adult. It should be provided with sufficient, uniform and not blinding lighting of the written table as the day and evening, and it should be combined with good insolation of the entire room. It is recommended to use a desk lamp that provides the illumination of the workplace at the level of 500 LCs. This level of illumination gives a lamp installed at an altitude of 600-800mm. Too bright light blind eyes, and as a result, they get tired faster. The light on the work surface should fall on the left and front. If he is directed to the right or rear, the shadow will fall on books and notebooks. The desk lamp is made from the opposite side of the hand that the child writes: for the right-handed light streams should fall from the left shoulder to the right, for the left-hander - on the contrary. Unbend luminaires provide the ability to fix the ceiling in an arbitrary position. The reflector can be rearranged so that the shadow and head shadow fall into the workplace. A similar lamp evenly illuminates the entire area of the table from above, and at the same time, a straight light beats in the eyes of a child. The base of the lamp should not be glossy, so that the reflected light does not fall into the eyes.

Opinion of a specialist
When choosing a desktop lamp, preference is worth sending models from the width of the light beam 40 and the ability to adjust the inclination of the plastic. This will avoid light scattering and will give it possible to send it to the desired side, providing high light lights. When illuminating the workplace, it is advisable to use a lamp that gives cold white light with a color temperature of 4500-6500 K (depending on personal preferences), since it allows you to increase attentiveness and performance. The optimal solution is energy-saving, halogen or LED lamps. They do not give the accumulation of incandescent bulbs, reduce electricity costs.
