A comparison of blue-light transmissions through blue-control lenses
Summary:
The paper discusses the effects of blue light on the human eye and the effectiveness of blue-control lenses in filtering out harmful blue light.
Categories
- Eye health: The paper discusses the effects of blue light on the human eye, including potential damage to the retina and the role of blue light in age-related macular degeneration.
- Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses how blue light can interfere with sleep/wake cycles, known as circadian rhythms.
- Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses how blue light can affect cognitive performance and memory.
- Mood regulation: The paper discusses how blue light can affect mood and feelings of well-being.
- Aging: The paper discusses how the effects of blue light on the eye can change as a person ages, including a decrease in the retina's exposure to blue light.
- Phototherapy: The paper discusses the use of blue light in therapy, such as the treatment of jaundice in neonates.
- Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses the design of blue-control lenses and their effectiveness in filtering out harmful blue light.
