The lamp should be positioned as close as 6 inches, but within 24 inches of your face and should be slightly off-center.

For it to be most effective, the light from the lamp must indirectly enter the eyes as exposing only skin doesn’t elicit the same therapeutic effect. Note: do not look directly into the lamp.

Consider using the lamp on the high setting in the morning and on the low setting in the afternoon.
Light therapy isn't suitable for:

it’s not appropriate for everyone including:

Those intolerant of bright light

Some people with bipolar disorder as it can induce mania

People with diabetes who have retina damage

Anyone with pre-existing eye diseases
Light therapy affects brain chemicals (serotonin) linked to mood, light sensitivity, and sleep regulation that ease symptoms of SAD. The light stimulates specific cells in the retina of the eye that connect to the part of the brain that controls the circadian rhythm known as the hypothalamus. When the hypothalamus is activated around the same time every day, normal circadian rhythms can return. Symptoms tend to subside or lessen at the least.

Professionals indicate that light therapy can be as effective as traditional antidepressant medication. According to studies light therapy may also help to relieve fatigue and sleep disorders – whilst improving concentration, boosting energy, and improving mood.
