ApeFest Hong Kong: Visitors Suffer Eye Problems and Extreme Pain
Attendees of Yuga Labs' ApeFest event in Hong Kong have reported experiencing eye pain, burns, and vision loss, which they attribute to improper lighting. Some attendees who were in close proximity to the stage lighting display reported the most severe symptoms. At least 15 reports of vision damage have appeared on social media. Yuga Labs has not yet responded to requests for comment. This is not the first time partygoers in Hong Kong have experienced medical issues due to exposure to improper UV lighting at an event. The reported symptoms align with a condition called photokeratitis, caused by prolonged exposure to high levels of UV radiation.
