The blue light problem

In today's digital era, few people can take their eyes off the screen, whether it's a television, mobile phone, or computer. With the increasing use of these electronic devices and the use of LED lights, new problems have arisen.

• Exposure to blue light can lead to macular degeneration.
• Excessive blue light saturation can reduce visual acuity and make focusing difficult.
• Blue light has been shown to induce photochemical damage to the retina and macula, which causes oxidative stress in the eyes.
• Sleep disorders can lead to depression with an increased risk of illness.

Not all blue light is harmful

Blue light between 380 and 470 nm is considered harmful because it can cause retinal damage, cataracts , and is associated with sleep disorders. . However, not all blue light spectra are bad, for example the spectrum from 470 to 500 nm, also called turquoise blue light, is generally considered good . This range of visible blue light is beneficial because it stimulates natural reflexes that protect the eyes from overexposure and also helps the brain's cognitive and memory functions. At the same time, it stimulates photosensitive retinal ganglion cells, also the pupillary reflex and controls the circadian cycle.
