The Facts
Expensive and Painful Surgery
Blue light has been found to cause damage to the retina of your eye. This is called phytotoxicity. Damage depends on exposure time and wavelength. Studies show time on your devices from just minutes to hours is harmful. A filter that cuts blue light is helpful in reducing the risk of permanent and irreversible this damage to your eyes.
Almost all blue light passes through to the back of your retina. One study showed blue light triggered the release of toxic molecules in photoreceptor cells, which leads to age-related macular degeneration.
Adolescent Blindness
A Child's eye does not filter blue light as well as an adult's eye. Too much screen time has been shown to result in obesity, nearsightedness, and attention focusing problems.
Especially at night, blue light decreases the amount of melatonin produced by the body, which helps us sleep. Children should turn off their devices at least 30 minutes prior to their sleep time.
