Yeah, I was under the impression that most deep sea creatures we capture on film are dead a few hours later, either because they were blinded and now easy prey, or that in some cases it’s like a massive instant sunburn since they have no natural UV protection.
Our flashlights aren’t pumping UV, not like sunlight anyway. And just because it’s hella bright to them, I wouldn’t think our lights are energetic enough to damage tissue.
