This is pitched as (1) a treatment for SAD and (2) something people would like.
And that's great, but I want to consider something else -- one of the best theories of civilization-caused myopia is that it's caused by insufficient exposure to sunlight. And the table in the post is certainly circumstantial evidence supporting that theory:
> Direct sunlight shines 100k lux
> Full daylight (indirect) is more than 10k lux
> Indoor office lighting is typically 500
That's a big difference. What if illuminating the indoors at 10,000 lux prevented people from developing myopia?
