The type of UV lights that are used to treat water are much more powerful than the ones you buy at Wal Mart, for example, and they concentrate specific wavelengths of light (240-245nm, as I recall). As a general precaution, though prolonged exposure to any UV light isn't good for your eyes. Use it sparingly.
