Top 3 Advantages Of Blue Light Blocking Glasses

You’ve probably heard about blue light blocker computer glasses and may be skeptical if there’s really any benefit to wearing them. You may also be confused about when and where to wear them and what they actually do. Studies abound citing their benefits, but one study to take note of suggests that teenagers may be even more sensitive than adults to blue light. Just an hour of exposure from a glowing device, like a phone, in the evening time suppressed melatonin (a hormone that influences circadian rhythms) by 23% and two hours decreased it by 38%. Still not convinced? Here are three reasons why you should consider a pair of blue blocker glasses for yourself and protect your vision starting today.

1. Decrease Eye Strain and Fatigue

It’s a know fact that working with your computer for prolonged periods of time can cause neck problems and carpal tunnel syndrome. But it may be a surprise that eye strain is another computer related problem. The main culprit behind this is the bright blue UV light your computer or smartphone screen releases. Using blue blockers while using various devices will certainly decrease eye strain and other issues such as blurred vision and headaches, but it could also have long term positive effects on your both your vision and your sleep.

2. Slow Down or Prevent Age-Associated Macular Degeneration

Macular Degeneration is the leading cause of vision loss. It affects more than 10 million Americans which is more than cataracts and glaucoma combined. Preliminary research on this topic suggests that when blue light enters the retina, long term damage can ensue such as damaged retinal cells. This can cause vision problems like age-related macular degeneration. Blue blocker glasses can lessen this damage and reduce eye strain and eye fatigue at the same time.

3. Get To Sleep Faster and Sleep More Deeply

Artificial lighting in your home emitted from devices and stray overhead lighting can deeply affect your sleep. Contact with artificial light late in the evening can impact your circadian rhythm in both the short and the long term. How? By preventing the secretion of melatonin – the chemical in your brain that lets your your body know it is bedtime. Experts advocate deactivating all gadgets that release blue light at least two hours before bed. However, not only is this not realistic but traditional blue blockers only partially protect you from the problems artificial lighting at night can cause. SafetyBlueTM Eyewear has an innovative solution, upgraded blue blocking glasses if you will, that block the two most dangerous light frequencies (blue and green) affecting melatonin production in the evening hours. If turning off your gadgets and investing in more healthy lighting in your home is not an option, get a pair of Sleep SaviorTM glasses today.
