How to Protect Your Eyes from Blue Light on Screens

Our modern lives are filled with screens - smartphones, tablets, laptops, and TVs. While these devices provide us with endless information and entertainment, they also emit blue light that can be harmful to our eyes.

Blue light is a high-energy light that is emitted by electronic screens, and prolonged exposure to it can cause digital eye strain, sleep disruptions, and even contribute to long-term eye problems.

However, there are ways to protect your eyes from blue light:

• Use screen filters or blue light blocking apps to reduce the amount of blue light reaching your eyes.
• Take regular breaks from screen time and practice the 20-20-20 rule - every 20 minutes, look at an object 20 feet away for 20 seconds.
• Keep screens at a distance and reduce glare by adjusting brightness and using a matte screen protector.
• Invest in blue light filtering glasses, which can help block harmful blue light and reduce eye strain.

By incorporating these tips into your daily screen time routine, you can minimize the negative effects of blue light and protect your eyes.
