To avoid receiving this blue light emitted by electronic devices, Wearing blue light glasses is very popular.
Well, these glasses, really Reduces the harmful effects of blue light Is it?
Let’s first look at what blue light is.

Blue light has a very short wavelength and produces large amounts of energy. It is a form of electromagnetic radiation. Although this blue light negatively affects our eyes in some way, it does not actually cause irreversible damage to the eyes.
Moreover, exposure to blue light is not exactly new. In other words, before computers, mobile phones and tablets entered our lives, We were exposed to this light.
Because the sun is the largest source of blue light and this light It is also found in fluorescent and LED lighting.
But while the sun, fluorescent lights and LED lights don’t bother our eyes that much, why do the blue lights emitted by electronic devices bother our eyes so much?

Actually, the answer to this question is eye strain. More than 60% of people do not realize this digital eye strain lives. Because when we look at devices such as tablets, computers and phones, we blink much less and this causes eye strain.
On the other hand, blue light stimulates the body’s circadian rhythm, natural wake and sleep cycle effects. According to Harvard researchers, all types of light, including blue light, reduce the body’s ability to secrete melatonin, a hormone that helps with sleep.
Here are the blue light blocking glasses emitted by digital screens. Blocks or filters blue light. This helps you get a good night’s sleep. It also minimizes computer-related headaches and eye pain caused by looking at the screen for too long.
