We are spending 7+ hours on devices. That's a lot of screen time - and a lot of blue light exposure - which leads to eye damage, sleep disruption and premature aging. Face it, screen time is only increasing and so is your exposure to blue light. EyeJust is a blue light blocking screen protector that filters the highest amount of harmful blue light without changing the color of the screen. The eye-opening truth is: harmful blue light is damaging your eyes, skin, and sleep. Blue light damages photoreceptor cells, putting you at risk for digital eye strain or worse, macular degeneration. According to Ophthalmologist Dr. Yuna Rapoport, "Symptoms of digital eyestrain and fatigue are on the rise. It is time that people start to address these problems with smart tech solutions." Blue light also impacts sleep cycles by interrupting the body's circadian rhythm and suppressing melatonin. The human brain interprets blue light as daylight preventing you from getting a good night's sleep. Clinically, overexposure to blue light can accelerate signs of aging, including fine lines and wrinkles, and hyperpigmentation in a similar manner which is frequently associated with UV radiation and chronic sun exposure. According to dermatologist Dr. Anetta Reszko of Weill Cornell New York Presbyterian Medical, "Long-term use of blue light leads to several changes similar to the changes seen with chronic exposure to UV light."
