The best thing I found for light is I had a solar tube installed. it is much like a sky light except it does not have any heat lost or gain, that makes it wonderful to have and gives a daylight effect in the whole room. Being a widow I had to have someone install it for me. Lowes sells them much cheaper if you have a do-it-yourselfer to work with it. Even it you have to have it installed it is under a thousand dollars and uses no engery so a good investment if you can get one. I sure enjoy seeing.
