Blue Light Glasses
What is blue light?
The spectrum of visible light is arranged from low energy to high energy. As you can see below, blue light is what’s known as “short wavelength” and therefore is high energy light. It is the closest visible light to UV light on the spectrum.
Being outdoors is where you’ll get most of your blue light - and this is good! It’s what gives us our natural sleeping and waking rhythms.
That doesn’t sound like a problem…
True! High energy light is good when you want to stay awake during the daytime. However, the problem comes when the sun goes down but the screens stay on. Your digital screens emit this same type of high energy blue light - convincing your mind and body that your computer is some sort of second sun. This disrupts your sleeping rhythms and can cause - you guessed it - sleeping problems.
Our blue light glasses filter out this high energy light leaving you with the freedom to zoom, Netflix, or study into the evening without risking your precious beauty sleep.
There is insufficient evidence to suggest that blue light from digital screens leads to any sort of eye disease, and no evidence to suggest that a blue light filter protects you from these diseases.
