Is Phillips Go Lite Blu Safe To Use?

Can you advise if the Phillips Go Lite Blu Box is safe to use. I have heard that it can cause macular degeneration (one of my friends) but from all the research I have done, it seems pretty safe to me as long as I don t look at it directly. Thank you,

Hello and welcome to HCM,
The direct viewing of the blue box can lead to macular degeneration.
However, it is safe when not viewed directly.
You can use it without looking at it directly.

Thanks and take care
