Blue is part of the visible spectrum of light and does have an important role in the sleeping and waking cycle. Located towards the short end of the visible spectrum, which is near ultraviolet light, blue light consists of short, high-energy wavelengths that in normal amounts help boost your alertness, reaction, and mood. However, blue light can be disruptive as well, since its presence tells your body that it is still daytime. It is why many doctors recommend shutting off devices that give off blue light, so your body can adjust to going to sleep.

Because blue light is a high energy light, it scatters easily and makes it difficult for your eyes to properly focus. When outdoors this is usually not an issue, but digital device screens give off blue light which makes reading more difficult. The result is that your eyes strain to focus through the noise that is being generated. The noise created by the blue light reduces the contrast. So, even if you are reading text on a seemingly white screen, there is still plenty of blue light being emitted. This means that your eyes must work harder to focus and thus they become strained. There are other factors that may contribute to eye strain when using digital devices. Most notably the light in the room itself that may obscure or otherwise reduce the contrast making it harder to see the screen. It is why more people are turning to blue light glasses for help. How Blue Light Glasses Can Help These are glasses specifically designed to block out blue light. The result is that your eyes can better focus when using digital devices. This means less eye strain as you work or relax when using your computer, laptop, or digital device. The glasses come in attractive frames while the lenses reduce and block the light that is harming your eyes. This means that with the glasses, you can see better and create a unique look for yourself as people see you. Plus, the blue light glasses are lightweight, easy to wear, and can be used daily when you are working online. The result is glasses that are beneficial, affordable, and you can buy in pairs or as many as you need for work, home, and when traveling. There are several things you can do to reduce the blue light from digital screens entering your eyes. Limit your time on computers, laptops, and mobile devices if possible. Shut all digital devices down about an hour before going to bed. Dr. Durante at Cohen’s Fashion Optical has the blue light glasses that helps your eyes focus and relax when working online.
