Product Information

Light sensors in your eyes and even in your skin can perceive the difference between the intense blue light waves of bright daylight and the warmer, redder tones that signal the day is ending. When the light around you eases into those sunset shades, the sensors in your eyes prompt your body to release your body’s natural stores of melatonin, the sleep-inducing hormone. The proximity of LED screens to our eyes means we're getting a lot of blue light (Image credit: Pixabay) Blue light: night shift, dark mode, and f.lux The three attributes we rated in our testing were fit, feel, and clarity. We considered whether their glasses fit snugly and comfortably on their faces, noting when glasses slipped down, pressed too tightly against their heads, needed constant adjustment, or felt too large or small for their faces. (We also made stylistic notes here, too, when a pair seemed particularly on- or off-trend.) For feel, we evaluated how our eyes felt after hours of wear; if we noted short- or long-term improvement in eye strain symptoms over the course of the testing week, those glasses scored higher for feel than others that didn’t give us any noticeable improvement. The AAO recommends that you take the steps below to reduce digital eyestrain. Practice the 20/20/20 strategy Consequently, your view of the screen may be distorted, or it could make it difficult for you to properly see which colors are on the screen.

Cortisol is a hormone which is responsible for waking us up, whereas melatonin is a hormone accountable for helping us to fall asleep.Smith, A, K., et al. (2020). The effect of a screen protector on blue light intensity emitted from different hand-held devices. One Ocean’s mist can help protect the skin from digital blue light exposure, and was shown in a clinical trial to improve the skin’s biome shield (made of good bacteria) in just one week. Ingredients like red algae extract preserve the hydration of the skin, while a high-performance peptide promotes a healthier skin barrier and combats inflammation. Keep it at your desk and spritz your face three times a day to reinforce against blue light and repair common signs of skin damage such as dark spots, wrinkles, and general roughness.

A study by the US National Institutes of Health writes that "More than one-third of wearers found that a clear lens with a blue-filtering coating (BT lens, which all limit blue light up to 20%) provided better anti-glare performance and improved their vision for computer and mobile digital screens." We are living in an era where our exposure to devices and screen time is only increasing. With that comes increased exposure to blue light. With multiple blue light protection devices on the market, let’s investigate the pros and cons of blue light screen protector and see if blue light filters are really worth it! By placing a blue screen protector on your device, it can shield your eyes from blue light exposure and make it more comfortable to work on a device. A 2020 review reveals that excessive exposure to blue light can cause severe photochemical injury to the retina. However, this reflects exposure to high levels of blue light in a laboratory setting. In contrast, computers and digital devices provide low enough levels of blue light that they do not cause damage to the eyes.

Are sticky tabs necessary for a screen protector?

A small 2018 study has shown that exposure to blue light can perk up your reaction time and stimulate alertness when you’re not at your peak performance time of day. Boost memory and cognitive function
