Are blue light glasses really important in this digital world?

In this digital world, people of all ages love to spend their times in front of a digital screen. That’s why they are suffering from many diseases such as eyestrain, dry eyes, blurred vision, and headache.      

According to a study, 60% of adults experience eyestrain due to prolonged use of electronic devices. So, everyone thinks about protecting their eyes from the high energy visible blue light- emitted from artificial devices such as desktop screens and CFL lighting. Blue light lenses are designed for the digital world. Blue-blocking glasses provide three times more protection to human eye health from harmful blue wavelengths than a standard clear lens.

Both natural and artificial light sources i.e., sun and digital devices emit the harmful blue light- a part of the visible light spectrum. It can have a negative impact on eyes, specifically the retina. With the aid of digital protection lenses, you can reduce the risk of digital eyestrain caused due to the continuous use of blue light emitting devices.
