Summary

  • A pair of blue light glasses is one of the most worthwhile pieces of technology the author has invested in
  • They improve focus and mental clarity as well as helping the user sleep better
  • Blue light is emitted by LED and OLED displays and can induce stress
  • The best lenses block a proportion of high-energy visible blue light and have anti-glare and scratch-resistant coatings
  • Look for pairs that block at least 35% of HEV light in the 400–450nm range, have clear or very clear lenses and are lightweight with well-balanced frames
  • Advanced pairs have additional features such as audio and connectivity built in
