Electronic device generated light increases reactive oxygen species in human fibroblasts

ConclusionsOur results suggest that short exposures of EDGL increase ROS generation, but the long‐term effects associated with repeated exposures of EDGL are unknown. As electronic devices become more widely used and integrated into society globally, we anticipate greater scientific research and general public interest on the effects of visible EDGL on skin.
