Computer vision syndrome and blue light blocking glasses are known to work effectively with each other. But before we dive into the working of blue light glasses, let’s dig deep into computer vision syndrome caused by blue light. Computer vision syndrome (CVS) is an umbrella term for the combination of eye and vision problems often caused by blue light rays that are emitted from the digital screens of computers, smartphones, and so on.

Recent research on the study of blue light highlights that a normal individual is exposed to screen for more than 10 hours a day. 

Have you experienced eye problems while staring at a screen? If yes, did the blue light exposure make you feel difficult to focus, causing dry or watery eyes, headaches, dizziness, neck pain and sore, tired and burning eyes?  

What causes computer vision syndrome? 

Computer vision syndrome or Digital Eye Strain is often due to poor lighting, improper sitting posture, uncorrected vision problems, and prolonged exposure to blue light. In a lot of situations, blue light exposure is one of the biggest reasons for computer vision syndrome. Medical News Today also claims that people who work on their computer have a low rate of blinking, resulting in dry eyes. 

The main culprit to all these problems is blue light rays to which our eyes are constantly exposed daily. 

How is blue light harmful?

Not all the blue light is bad, the natural blue light emitted from the sun is quite helpful. Blue light from the sun helps to enhance dopamine, serotonin, and cortisol that’s required for your healthy well-being. However, it’s not the same blue light that causes numerous eye problems, sleep issues, obesity and other physical changes. Blue light rays emitted from smartphones, laptops, office lights and TVs are artificial which when overexposed to you, result in severe vision changes and health issues. 

Artificial blue light rays not only cause eye problems but also disrupt your healthy sleep routine. Blue light exposure into our body ceases the secretion of the sleep-inducing hormone, melatonin. Which tricks our brain to tell our body clock to think of the night as daylight, thereby depriving you of quality sleep at night. Blue light manipulates your brain into thinking of the night as daylight, and making you alert, active and awake.

It’s not at all healthy to use digital devices after sunset as it sends wrong messages to your brain, resulting in sleep deprivation, mood disorder, depression and high anxiety. You are exposed to blue light when you switch on your TVs at night, our check your last email on your smartphone.
