It is possible for lighting to be excessively bright though.
Huge strain on eyes...
Not to mention if a player gets used to bright lights, he might not be able to see so well in normal lighting.
That's why I unscrew a bulb or two from my light when practicing so it more closely matches the bars I play in. My eyes suck anyway, so I want to be able to stay competitive instead of enjoying my table.
Lovely game, ain't it,
