Summary
The paper investigates the effect of blue-blocking lenses on visual and non-visual functions, including protection from photochemical retinal damage, blue perception, scotopic vision, and circadian rhythm.
Categories
Eye health: The paper discusses the use of blue-blocking lenses for retinal protection from blue light exposure, which can cause retinal damage.
Sleep and insomnia: The paper discusses the impact of blue light on circadian rhythm, which can affect sleep patterns.
Alertness and performance: The paper discusses the impact of blue light on alertness and cognitive performance.
Lighting Design Considerations: The paper discusses the use of blue-blocking lenses, which can be considered a lighting design consideration as they alter the light that reaches the eye.
