Design engineers at NASA don't spend all of their time launching space shuttles. In collaboration with Westinghouse Lighting Corporation, they designed the Eye Saver™ Easy Reading Light Bulb. The Eye Saver offers many advantages over most existing, commercially available light bulbs. It directs light to areas where it is most needed, leading to 40 percent more surface illumination and its lifetime is twice that of standard bulbs. It even has a "frosty finish that reduces eyestrain by lowering glare."
