What is blue light?
Blue light, also known as high-energy visible (HEV) light, is a color in the visible light spectrum that the human eye can perceive. These wavelengths of visible and invisible light are measured in nanometers (nm), and generally, the shorter the wavelength, the greater the energy. Blue light has a short wavelength, meaning it produces higher amounts of energy.
Unlike other forms of light, the eyes cannot effectively filter blue light, so a greater amount can pass through the eye and reach the retina. Blue light has both benefits and problems for our eyes and our overall health.
ARTIFICIAL VS NATURAL?
High-energy blue light sources
We are exposed to blue light almost constantly. The main source of blue light is sunlight, but it is also emitted by laptops and monitors, smartphones, tablets, televisions, compact fluorescent light bulbs, and compact fluorescent lamps.
Our exposure to blue light from digital devices is a particular concern due to the proximity of the screens, the amount of time we use our devices, and the cumulative impact of using them every day.
What are the benefits of blue light?
- It promotes alertness.
- It enhances memory and cognitive function.
- It improves mood.
- It regulates the circadian rhythm.
What are the risks?
Screen time has been increasing for the past 20 years and now exceeds 13 hours per day. According to the Sight Council, many people experience eye strain and vision problems when using digital devices for extended periods.
Up to 65% of Americans report experiencing symptoms of digital eye strain, which can include symptoms of:
- Eyestrain
- Blurred vision
- Dry and irritated eyes
- Headaches
- Impact on our circadian rhythms
- Sleeping problems
- Waking up during the night
- Alert status reduced the following day
