Blue Blockers Optic Pro

Why use glasses that block blue light?

Exposure to artificial blue light in the evening affects the quality of sleep and can also increase the risk of insomnia. Mobile phones, tablets, TV screens, computer monitors and even ordinary lamps and fluorescent lights emit blue light. That type of light down-regulates the brain's production of melatonin, a hormone that is absolutely crucial for getting a good night's sleep. Without sufficient melatonin production, it is virtually impossible to sleep well.

The scientific literature states that the so-called sleep efficiency and time to fall asleep is noticeably better for wearers of blue-blocking glasses and that test groups wearing blue light-blocking glasses experience a significant improvement in sleep quality compared to control groups not wearing blue-blocking glasses. Exposure to blue light can also lead to dry itchy eyes, eyestrain and headaches. Besides, blue light is considered to have negative effect on stress hormones if exposed to during the evening and night.

Use Blue Blockers Optic Pro 2–3 hours before going to bed at night. Don't take them off until you've turned off all the lights and gone to bed.

What is blue light?

The wavelengths of light are measured in nanometers (nm) and each wavelength range has its own color. The shorter the wavelength, the more energy the light contains. Blue light ranges from about 380–500 nm. Natural blue light is mostly found in morning and day light. During the evening, the amount of blue light decreases. The eyes cannot effectively filter blue light.

It is important to be exposed to natural blue light from the sun in the morning to wake up and be alert during the day. Artificial blue, on the other hand, appears in unnaturally high proportions in mobile phones, reading tablets, TV screens, computer screens and even ordinary lamps and fluorescent lights in comparison to the other wavelengths of light (green, yellow, red). This affects the production of the sleep hormone melatonin very negatively but also the cells of the retina.

Can I use Blue Blockers Optic Pro on top of other glasses?

Blue Blockers Optic Pro are not designed to be worn on top of other glasses. Some people put them on their regular glasses but it is not something we recommend.

Can children use Blue Blockers Optic Pro?

The frame and frame are made for adults, but children can use the Blue Blockers Optic Pro as long as the frame fits.

Which nutrients improve sleep?

The signaling pathway that starts with the amino acid tryptophan and ends with the sleep hormone melatonin requires that you are not deficient in vitamin B3 (Niacin), vitamin B6, vitamin D, zinc and magnesium. Any deficiency in these vitamins and minerals will, without exceptions, lead to poor sleep and / or insomnia in the long run.
