Response to Does flash damage babies' eyes?

from Sean Noonan (stnoonan@yahoo.com)
The issue here is that babies' pigment in the iris is not yet fully developed. This makes them sensitive to all types of light, not just flash. Flash presents a problem because of the intensity of the light and its short duration (baby's eye can't 'stop down' fast enough). I'll try to find a link to the medsite db article this info came from.
