Summary
This paper reviews the damaging effects of blue light on the human retina and body, discussing the potential harm it poses and suggesting future directions for studies regarding local and/or systemic effects of blue light retinal exposures.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the damaging effects of blue light on the human retina, including potential risks for retinal damage and age-related macular degeneration.
Aging: The paper discusses the increased risk of age-related macular degeneration due to prolonged exposure to blue light.
Phototherapy: The paper discusses the use of blue light in various devices and its potential harmful effects, suggesting the need for further studies on the effects of blue light retinal exposures.
