Anti-blue light glasses and contact lenses:fad or real progress for your eyes?

Blue light blocking glasses:to preserve your eye health

Blue light blocking glasses are the ideal eye device to protect the eyes from harmful rays. First of all, we are talking about artificial and unnatural blue light. Natural blue light is emitted by the sun and is beneficial for the eyes. Indeed, it regulates the cycles of sleep and wakefulness (circadian cycle). It also has the role of promoting alertness, increasing reaction time and providing a feeling of well-being. Artificial blue light is emitted by electronic devices such as smartphones, tablets, computers, televisions, and LEDs.

Overexposure to artificial blue light increases the risk of eye strain. In addition, it leads to a disturbance of the natural clock. Your brain will struggle to tell the difference between day and night.

Wearing blue light blocking glasses is therefore very useful to fight against:

  • Headaches
  • Visual fatigue;
  • The deterioration of sleep.

Contact lenses:practical and discreet

Contact lenses have the same function as eyeglasses, that is, to correct vision problems. With the difference that the lenses are much more discreet. Indeed, this ocular device is placed directly on the eye, making it completely invisible.

The contact lens is used more and more, precisely because it is discreet. It is impossible to tell the difference between a person who wears contact lenses and someone who does not. It allows you to get rid of the discomfort that can be caused by the frame of the glasses. Contact lenses are perfect for people who are used to moving around a lot during the day. It is also the most suitable ocular device for the practice of sport.

Even if some lenses allow their wearer to change the color of their eyes, they are still medical devices. Before wearing it, it is necessary to consult an ophthalmologist and obtain a prescription.
