None of these address the therapeutic use of them, regular light strands have lead in them too, so you wash your hands after handling them or wear gloves. Now as far as the blue and white color intensity harming children's eye's I don't think it would be a good idea to use them around your house if your child likes to stare at them. In my experience being around children with sensory issues sometimes they like to stare at the red but it makes no mention of the red harming the cornea of children's eyes, besides no decent parent is going to allow that. Once i was researching night blindness and read an article where people were disputing the blue LED's used on car headlights and appliances because it was bothersome but only some people had a problem with that. I have light sensitivity issues but have never really been bothered by it. Now as far as the larger holiday light strands, the bulbs are usually covered with a plastic bezel that looks like it's part of the bulb but the bulb is underneath. There are lots of holes in those articles. If i find any discrepancy about the safety of increasing cellular energy with them than i will be sure to share it with you.

If you cannot find the ANSES article I can send it to you. It is much longer and I would be interested in your comments. Thanks.

They do not mention quantities per 'bulb'. And they do not give the science behind it. And the how do you break an led? and then how is the metal contamination released to the atmosphere if it is incorporated into the electronics of the led? Versus CFLs where the contaminants are a gas or a powder which are released if the glass cracks. It seems to be an Anti_led emotional scare marketing ploy.
