Blue protection glasses, also known as, blue light glasses are ones that shield you from blue light and its harmful effects. They help your eyes stay healthy while improving the quality of your sleep. Yet, some people think they aren’t worth it. We think that’s because these people don’t use digital devices more than an hour a day. Because if they would, blue protection glasses are no doubt worthy for them. Why? Read on to know!
Are Blue protection glasses worth it?
A study recently revealed that the average Briton spends about 3 hours 25 minutes on their phones every day. Yes, this data doesn’t include the time that the average person spends on their computer while working, playing games or watching Netflix. Yet, it is an alarming number to look at. Now you might ask - Why alarming? Is there something wrong with digital devices?
Yes, digital devices emit harmful rays of high energy blue light that damages the retina. This particular part of our eyes is a crucial one as it is the one on which light focuses and we get to see an image of what’s in front of us.
The damage to the retina, especially its central portion called the macula can lead to macular degeneration. This condition can further lead to vision loss if not treated on time.
Long term exposure to blue light also increases your chances of having cataract. This particular condition is treated with surgery i.e., replacement of the natural eye lens with an artificial one.
If these aren’t enough to make blue protection glasses worth it for you, here are more reasons. The blue light from digital devices hampers the production of melatonin in the body. Melatonin is the sleep hormone. Its generation in the night keeps your circadian rhythm intact that helps your body sleep and wake up at the right times. With no release of melatonin in the night, the body thinks it is day time and thus, doesn’t go to sleep properly. The result is poor quality sleep which in the long term becomes a disease called insomnia.
This also results in a build-up of neurotoxins in the brain and oxidative stress that keeps damaging the cells your brain is made up of.
Eventually, this can lead to depression which is something we all need to stay away from at all costs.
What’s more, blue light also tends to increase your chances of diabetes, heart problems and obesity to some extent.
That was all about health. But before helping you against all that, blue protection glasses help with the relief they provide. That’s because they avoid the eye strains, dry eyes, headaches, blurry vision and sometimes teary eyes that you might have to go through daily.
If you are someone who isn’t able to concentrate on work because of all such issues, blue protection glasses will become your best friend. Gamers can also use these glasses to amp up their gaming experience. One reason for that is the yellow tint of blue protection glasses that helps increase the contrast. This helps in clarity of vision and relaxation for the eye muscles as they don’t have to put in a lot of efforts while focusing on the target.
So, you see blue light has a lot of ill-effects that we need to stay away from. Blue protection glasses are our saviour. That’s the reason what makes them so worth it.
