You have your general lighting, accent/ambient lighting, and task lighting. Task lighting in the form of a desk lamp is concentrated lighting with the purpose to help you complete your work.
In recent years, desk lamps have incorporated LED technology which besides its innate benefits of not emitting heat, low power consumption, and long lasting durability, also better replicate natural light which is important for our circadian rhythm.

That midterm, report, homework, website, and new app is not going to be done by itself and that’s how our trusty desk lamp shines.
Besides improving the lighting conditions of your home office, LED technology incorporated on desk lamps are better at imitating natural light. Still, it is important that you buy the right desk lamp and the right type of light.
Warm lighting (CRI 55): Creates a sense of comfort and relaxation. This type of lighting is perfect if your afternoons are spent reading books or online articles that you enjoy.
Cool lighting (CRI 60-65): Found in conference and brainstorming rooms of high profile companies, improves alertness, mood, and productivity. It also reduces melatonin which reduces the feeling of fatigue.
Color Rendering Index is the measurement of light in relation to how it affects the appearance of color. Natural daylight has a CRI of 80.

Also make sure it is highly adjustable. Being able to move the arm up and down as well as rotate to focus the light where it is needed.
