Conventional lamps have been proven to be inefficient for use as work lamps for a variety of reasons, and a sizeable population prefers to use no light while working with screens at night; this leads to eye strain and more chronic disorders if continued regularly. Table lamps provide a middle ground for using as work lamps or to brighten up the surroundings a bit while working but have been slow in adaptation. In this I attempt to identify the reason for the low adaptation of table lamps and to improve upon their design for using them in mainly work environments.
