Blue Light
Natural blue light is part of the visible light spectrum and it’s considered to be beneficial, since it helps to regulate our body’s biological clock, to trigger our body’s growth mechanism and it plays an important role fo
r people to feel euphoria. In other words blue light triggers our happiness feeling. As a part of visible light spectrum, natural blue light ought to not be totally blocked, as it would affect the quality of our vision by affecting color perception, it would disturb our growth mechanism and our body’s internal clock. Nevertheless, LCD and LED computers monitors, TV’s and smartphone devices emitting a different type of blue-violet light, which can have harmful impact on eyes and specifically on the retina. A person’s optical system is designed to act as a natural filter protecting the eyes from undesirable or harmful rays. Although this human optical system provides significant protection against blue light rays coming from the sun, but it’s not biologically evolved to confront the blue light emanating from digital devices, or fluorescent-light tubes and LED lightning.
