Why is it important to filter Blue Light?
DIGITAL EYE STRAIN
Because Blue Light scatters more easily, images can appear lower in contrast. This lower contrast can cause eye strain and dry or irritated eyes when viewing a screen for extended periods of time.
DISRUPTED SLEEP PATTERNS
While Blue Light in small doses can be beneficial during the day, too much Blue Light during the night may disrupt your body’s natural circadian rhythm and make it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep. Blue Light suppresses melatonin secretion, a hormone required to regulate your sleep at night.
EYE DAMAGE
Some studies have evidence to suggest a link between Blue Light and damage to the retina, which could be tied to macular degeneration. However, studies are still too early and inconclusive to prove definitively..
What is Blue Light?
Proper amounts of Blue Light can provide various health benefits:
-
1Improve your body’s natural sleep cycle*
-
2Help to improve general mood and ease depression*
-
3Improve memory and core cognitive functions*
-
4Contribute to healthy eye development in children*
The sun is not the only source of Blue Light. In our modern world, the various electronics we depend on in addition to energy-efficient lighting contribute significantly to our exposure to Blue Light.
*As suggested by recent studies.How Blue Light Glasses came to be.
It’s not only important to understand why you should filter Blue Light, but also why Blue Light blocking glasses (also known as computer glasses) were created. According to The Vision Council, a group dedicated to improving vision health, over 80% of Americans spend more than two hours a day on a device that emanates blue light. 67% of this time is spent on more than one device during this time. In our increasingly digital world, lessening time spent in front of screens isn’t easy (or even possible at times.) That’s why Blue Light glasses were specially designed with lenses that filter Blue Light and reduce glare. Both the Vision Council and Dr. Samuel Pierce, president of the American Optometric Association recommend using prescription Blue Light glasses or non-prescription Blue Light glasses to decrease the symptoms related to eye strain caused by digital devices. Whether you’re staring at a computer screen for extended periods of time, or scrolling through social media, catching up with late-night reading on your tablet, Felix Gray’s Blue Light blocking prescription glasses and non-prescription glasses may be just what you need to limit the exposure.

The truth: Blue Light is all around us.
You may not see it, but Blue Light is everywhere, all around us. Emanating from the sun, LED lights, computers, tablets and smartphone screens—Blue Light is virtually inescapable. Unfortunately, too much Blue Light can irritate the eyes (often in the form of Digital Eye Strain) and can disrupt sleep patterns. Blue Light can be okay in appropriate doses and boost alertness, memory, and other cognitive functions. However, too much of it can irritate the eyes and disrupt sleep patterns. Too much of a good thing can be an issue.
How can you reduce the impacts of Blue Light overexposure?
With smartphone, tablet, television, and computer usage becoming a standard part of our daily lives, the risk of overexposure to Blue Light can be a concern. Overexposure to Blue Light can negatively impact your health but you can lessen those adverse effects by following these tips:-
1
MINIMIZE SCREEN TIME
The best way to prevent any adverse effects from Blue Light is to minimize screen time, especially at night. Avoid using your phone or watching television approximately one hour before you head to bed to prepare your body for the rest it needs.
-
2
WEAR BLUE LIGHT GLASSES
The best Blue Light blocking glasses (also known as anti-Blue Light glasses, Blue Light blocker glasses, or Blue Light protection glasses) filter out Blue Light, reducing conditions like eye fatigue, dry eyes, and eye strain.
-
3
ADJUST ROOM LIGHTING
Do your best to keep room lighting levels consistent when using electronic devices. Bouncing from a bright screen to an area of the room that is darker causes eye fatigue.

REDUCE POWER AT NIGHT
Electronics nowadays have options to dim and shift the wavelengths from blue to red during nighttime. Certain manufacturers are also offering light bulbs that emit less Blue Light as dusk approaches.
