Abstract

No significant clinical evidence of skin or eye damage was found among a group of nightclub employees, dancers, and musicians who were exposed to fluorescent “black” light bulbs. The potential eye and skin hazard from the light emitted in the erythemogenic frequencies can be reduced by the interposition of ordinary glass between the light source and employees without diminishing the visual effects. Noise levels were found to range from 90 to 107 dB on the “A” network. The duration of the exposure time of customers is not of sufficient duration to present any noise or ultraviolet hazards.
