Is blue light truly 'the gluten of the sleep world'?
"Prolonged exposure could affect our vision by prematurely aging the eye and even cause retina damage which leads to macular degeneration," they said."Also, as one of the shortest, yet highest energy wavelengths in the light spectrum, blue light flickers easier and longer than other types of weaker wavelengths. This flickering leads to eye strain and subsequently, further eye and vision damage.
Perhaps we shouldn't over-worry about eye damage, then, although Dr Migliore added that we don't know for sure how screen use"may well impact our eyes in the long run" or if there are different effects on children. Even so, there are other reasons to care about blue light. Along with sleep disruption,"some studies even suggest that blue light exposure at night may increase your risk of depression, diabetes, and heart disease," said Dr Migliore.
There are other reasons to think critically about how much we look at screens, too."Staring at computer monitors for long periods interrupted can cause a multitude of other issues," Dr Migliore says."The risks include eye strain, dry eyes, and a condition called accommodative spasm which results from your eyes being effectively stuck focusing on shorter distances.
