In a brief statement on Thursday morning, Yuga Labs said that "UV-A emitting lights installed in one corner of the event" was likely the cause of eye pain experienced by attendees of the Bored Ape Yacht Club event ApeFest in Hong Kong.
Following the three-day event, reports poured in of attendees rushing to emergency rooms, each citing some variety of eye pain, temporary blindness, and skin irritation.
In their statment, the creators of the popular Bored Ape Yacht Club (BAYC) NFT collection said that Yuga Labs had launched an investigation into the ApeFest installations and reviewed which materials were used, conducted in partnership with the event's organizers, brand agency Jack Morton Worldwide.
Twitter users had previously hypothesized that the illumination used during ApeFest was high-powered UV-C bulbs intended for the disinfection of surfaces, instead of blacklights.
On Sunday, November 5, Yuga Labs began to receive reports that some ApeFest attendees and staff experienced eye pain, vision issues, or skin irritation following the Saturday night community event. These reports were - and continue to be - deeply concerning to us. We immediately…

Blacklights are designed to emit UV-A light because it is safer for humans and have the ability to cause fluorescent materials to glow without the dangerous side effects associated with UV-C radiation, which is used primarily for disinfection and sterilization purposes due to its germicidal properties.
Hypebeast held an event in Hong Kong back in 2017, which left attendees with many of the same symptoms as those experienced in the aftermath of ApeFest. One attendee of the Hypebeast event reportedly returned to the venue and discovered that at least one of the bulbs used for the event's lighting was UV-C.
Attendees of Bored Ape Yacht Club's ApeFest concert have reported experiencing extreme eye pain that's prompted some of them to visit the hospital. "To all my friends who suffer now: go get your eyes checked. You’ve likely most literally got your eyes burnt with UV like I did, which requires medications, eye drops, eye protection, antibiotics, and specialist care," wrote one attendee. "Don’t ignore this health hazard. Without proper treatment, it may cause long-lasting vision impairment and othe...
At least one Bored Ape NFT holder has already threatened legal action in the aftermath.
The founder and CEO of the art technology platform Artfi Asif Kamal said that he had sent a "legal notice" to Yuga Labs, describing it as a "first step toward suing them."
