What is blue light?

 

The light that can be seen is called visible light .

The light that can be seen is called non visible light .

 

Visible light is made up of rainbow colors .

 

 

 

Blue light has a wavelength range of approximately 400 to 500 nm.

 

Blue light emits high energy from screen devices and light bulbs, and is the ray of light we most encounter in our daily lives. 

 

But the biggest problem with modern lifestyle is,

 

Excessive exposure to artificial blue light emitted from artificial lighting, fluorescent lights, computers and cell phones.

 

This has a detrimental effect on sleep by suppressing the secretion of the sleep hormone melatonin.

 

 

So is blue light just bad?

 

Blue light actually has many important health benefits!

 

The blue light from natural light received from sunlight corrects the circadian rhythm, the biological clock, and stimulates cortisol secretion, promoting arousal and harmful responses to stress.

 

It also plays a role in increasing productivity and concentration.

 

 

 

But why is blue light said to be harmful?

 

Unlike natural blue light, if you are frequently exposed to artificial blue light,

 

Especially in the evening when the sun goes down, artificial blue light tricks the brain into telling the body that it is still daytime.

 

Blue light at night suppresses melatonin.

 

Melatonin is a powerful antioxidant.

 

Above all, Melatonin plays an important role in deep sleep , reducing inflammation, increasing immunity, and recovering after stresful exercise .

 

However, artificial blue light at night suppresses melatonin secretion,

 

This leads to insomnia, chronic fatigue, decreased immunity, and other critical health diseases!

 

 

Late-hour blue light can be very harmful to your body in many ways.

 

Long-term and short-term effects of unprotected exposure to artificial blue light is as follows:

 

short term

• sleep disorder
• chronic headache
• chronic eye fatigue
• helplessness
• Aging
• skin disease

 

long term

• Retinal Damage and Eye Disease
• heart disease
• brain disease
• Increased cancer prevalence
• increased risk of diabetes
• depression

How to treat blue light 

 

By receiving an appropriate amount of blue light from sunlight during the day,

 

Providing a biological virtuous cycle to the body by correcting the circadian rhythm,

 

 

 

At night, use LUCIER premium blue light blocking glasses.

 

Which blocks artificial blue light to maintain circadian rhythm.

 

We must understand that getting a quality sleep is the most important factor and the foundation of our biological regeneration. 

 

 

A healthy life begins with creating the right light environment.
