Everyone stares at screens, but do you know the impact it causes on your eye health? Whether it could be a computer, phone, tablet, or any of the numerous VDUs (Visual Display Units) we are constantly flooded with throughout the day, our eyes take the strain with very few trying to offset the impact.
Do you need to protect your eyes against blue light? The answer is a definite yes. Blue light – the part of the light spectrum with the highest energy and shortest wavelength – enters the eyes and passes through to the retina or the inner lining at the back of the eyes. This area is highly light-sensitive and reacts negatively to bad blue light. This blue light eye sensitivity triggers a series of potential ill effects. Therefore, protection from blue light is critical, as is the right choice of lenses to ensure the highest degree of effectiveness.
Not all blue light is bad, some parts of it are needed for your physical and mental health. Good blue light increases alertness, sharpens memory and cognitive function, regulates sleep, and elevates moods.
Back in the day, glasses were only for those who had a vision defect, but now with the increased time spent looking at digital screens like smartphones, laptops, and tablets, the need for computer eyeglasses or zero-power glasses has emerged. When you spend long hours looking at your device screen, you stress or strain the eyes, and repeated eye strain can lead to a vision defect later. Thus, computer glasses can help reduce strain and provide a more comfortable vision when you are looking at a screen for a long time. Along with being highly beneficial, these glasses come in a variety of cool styles. You can also pair them with your casual or formal outfits to radiate a unique and geek-chic vibe
