What are blue light glasses?

Blue light blocking glasses block high-energy visible (HEV) light given off from digital screens. Wearing blue light glasses can help reduce the effects of exposure to blue light.

Rays on the blue end of the light spectrum are high energy and have the shortest wavelengths. Therefore, the light gets scattered into other directions, causing haze and blur on screens, this can make it difficult to focus and can lead to digital eye strain and fatigue.

Do blue light glasses reduce tiredness?

Avoiding digital screens a few hours before bed can help you to sleep better, therefore reducing tiredness. During the day, it’s beneficial to be exposed to blue light because this helps regulate our circadian rhythm and keeps us more alert during the day. Blue light (from digital screens and/or the sun) makes the body feel like it should be awake, this is the reason we should avoid blue light during the evening.

What else can I do to reduce eye strain?

The Vision Council, a body representing the optical industry, recommends using glasses with blue light protection to reduce Computer Vision Syndrome. However, in addition to wearing blue ray glasses, there are other steps you can take to prevent or reduce the symptoms of eye strain.

Tips for preventing eye strain and irritation

  • Practice the 20-20-20 rule – every 20 mins look 20 feet into the distance for at least 20 seconds
  • Keep your eyes hydrated throughout the day with eye drops
  • Sit an arm’s length away from your screen
  • Have your computer screen lower than eye-level so that your eyes are not so widely open. This will prevent dry eye as when looking down, your eyes are slightly hooded which protects the tear film from evaporating
  • Blink regularly – this will help replenish your eye’s own tears and prevent dry eye
  • Adjust the brightness and contrast of your screen to match the brightness of your surroundings. The text size should be easy to read. You can also adjust the colour temperature on your monitor to reduce blue light
  • Adjust the room lighting – make sure there are no shadowy areas or glare from lamps

If you’re a contact lenses wearer, you may experience worsened symptoms of irritation and dryness. It’s Important to try and give your eyes a break by wearing glasses from time to time. You can also consider silicone hydrogel contact lenses as they allow more oxygen to reach the eye compared to standard hydrogel lenses.
