They can be to your eyes: too much light and you go blind. We use visible light daily to see so any frequency in the visible range is not harmful in/and of itself; but an excess of anything is bad for the human body.

Some exceptions:
There are some who are unusually sensitive to light, including natural sunlight. They can get rashes.
There are some who's eyes are more sensitive to light.
There was a short story wrote about a man who killed another by setting up a powerful spotlight, and shining it in his enemy's eyes, just as his enemy drove around a hair pin curve at night. He lost control and drove off the cliff.
visible light is not harmful at all

∙ 8y agoYes. Extremely bright light, such as from a laser, can cause eye damage. The most powerful lasers can actually cause burns and start fires.

How are visible light radiowaves and other forms of electromagnetic radiation different from each other?
The only part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we can see is the small yet significant part of visible light. Visible light is not harmful for humans, but some of the other types of waves are.
Why are ultraviolet rays more harmful to the skin than visible light?
That's related to the fact that UV rays have more energy per photon.
Compared to visible light ultraviolet radiation is more harmful to human skin and eyes because ultraviolet radiation has a?
higher frequency... resonance with DNA
What do the visible colars of light represent?
The frequency range of visible light.
Are X-rays visible light?
No, x-rays are not visible light.
Which form of visible light is harmful?
UV (ultra violet) light
How harmful are Visible Light?
If one is not careful, visible light can cause him to perceive acts, scenes, objects, and situations that he would rather not see.
What can radiation do to the human body?
That depends what radiation - there are several types. For example, visible light, in the usual quantities, does no harm at all. A very intense light, or other types of radiation, can be very harmful indeed.That depends what radiation - there are several types.

Which type of rays are visible?
visible light is the only VISIBLE light.
Why are uv waves harmful to the skin compared to visible light?
Ultra violet photons would have more energy as E = h f. Here f is frequency. UV has comparatively higher wavelength compared to that of light. Hence becoming harmful to skin

What kind of light is normal light that you use?
The answer is visible light. Visible light is light that can be seen with a naked eye
