The power of blue light technology glasses in Esports
  • Macular Degeneration

    Prolonged exposure to high-intensity blue light can damage retinal cells in the macula, leading to macular degeneration. This is caused by the generation of reactive oxygen species, inflammation, and phototoxicity. Disruptions in the sleep-wake cycle due to blue light exposure may also contribute to the condition.

  • Digital Eye Strain

    Blue light from screens can strain and discomfort your eyes, reduce blinking causing dry eyes, and potentially damage the retina. Evening exposure to blue light disrupts sleep patterns, contributing to tired eyes. The scattering of blue light reduces contrast, increases glare, and adds to eye strain.

  • Retina Cell Damage

    Prolonged exposure to blue light can damage retinal cells by causing photochemical damage and oxidative stress due to its high-energy waves penetrating the sensitive retina. This damage may contribute to retinal cell degeneration over time.

  • Sleep Disruption

    Exposure to blue light, particularly in the evening, disrupts sleep patterns by suppressing melatonin production. This can lead to difficulty falling asleep and reduced sleep quality, causing fatigue and grogginess the following day.
