What are the benefits of blue light blocking glasses?

Smartphone, computer, tablet… Every day your eyes are exposed to blue light (and we’re not talking about the one you dance under in nightclubs)! If screen brightness has such a bad reputation, it’s because it can impact your health and may even be linked to certain retinal conditions. But how can you keep binge-watching Netflix and spending your weekends liking your favorite stars’ Instagram posts without feeling guilty about your eyes? One solution… blue light blocking glasses, of course! But why are they so magical?

Blue light increases visual fatigue

Headaches, sleep disorders, and burning eyes sound familiar? You might be overexposed to screen light.

To avoid these symptoms, you can wear suitable glasses.

Their advantage? They reduce visual fatigue by reflecting between 20% and 40% of this light. They reduce exposure to blue-violet light rays and UV, while still letting through turquoise light, which is good for your health. These glasses will help prevent a drop in concentration and make reading easier. We want to keep you productive at work!

Glasses against the risk of premature eye aging

Who has ever dreamed of age-related ocular degeneration? Exactly—no one! To keep your beautiful eyes healthy, there are exercises you can do. You can reduce screen brightness, look away every 20 minutes and focus on the horizon for 20 seconds (hold on, wait until the end of the article before trying this tip!).

Otherwise, you can also opt for blue light blocking glasses, which reduce the exposure of your retina to screen light and help keep your eyes young for as long as possible.

And if you forget them, don’t forget to activate the “blue light” mode on your phone!

Glasses accessible to everyone

Good news, you don’t need to spend a fortune on blue light blocking glasses. With a generation spending more and more time on screens, blue light glasses have become widely accessible. Color, shape, size, and price—there’s something for every eye! From cellulose acetate frames for a chic look to metal frames for a more rock’n’roll style, everyone can find THEIR pair of glasses.

You can even find your pair online or directly in store. No need to look far!

For those who wear glasses daily to read or avoid bumping into walls, consider adding a blue light filter to your lenses. Maybe it’s time to change your glasses?

Because glasses are stylish

If you’re still not convinced by the benefits of blue light blocking glasses, know that they’ll give you a serious “work-ready” look. Who has never wanted to play the business woman or business man at their desk?

And for those who prefer a fashion-forward vibe, you can protect your eyes in style by playing with shapes and colors!
