I've been reading more and more articles about the danger/issues of blue lights on iphones, tv, tablets, etc.
Most of us nowadays have one, if not many, of those devices.
Do you use a blue light filter on your electronic "toys"?
I went for an eye exam 2 weeks ago and opto said she noticed that I have a small spot on the macula. Nothing to be alarmed. May have been there already 10 years ago and never grew. But she took a picture for a follow-up in a year or 2. Also the fact that I have drier eyes (I had lasik done in May 2008) is often related to a lot of computer (which I do). So I have to take breaks every 20 minutes.
But she did ask me if I did a lot of computer/similar gadgets things and yes as I have an iphone, tablet, laptop and HD tv... And I don't sleep well of course as I read from my Notes 10.1 tablet (magazines or downloaded books).
She's asked me to try to use a filter on my tablet at night. Something I was already using, on/off. I find the image not as sharp as it is darker and it changes the look of a magazine page. But if I don't want sleep issues (at least worst then they are) or eye issues in the long run, I have to tone down the blue lights on my devices.
So do you protect your eyes from those blue lights?
