Digital eye strain is caused by prolonged exposure to blue light-emitting devices like desktop computer monitors, laptops, tablets and smartphones. Staring at screens for too long without periods of rest can result in physical eye discomfort that may also trigger headaches, blurred vision, dry eyes and pain in the neck and shoulders.
Besides putting a strain on your eyes, excessive blue light exposure can also throw off your circadian rhythm by making it difficult to fall asleep and stay asleep. The circadian rhythm is influenced by blue light, so staring at blue light-emitting devices that mimic natural daytime light during the evening hours prior to going to sleep can trick the body into thinking it's still daytime, thus delaying sleep onset.
Taking breaks from staring at screens as well as limiting use of these devices in the evening hours is a good idea, but installing an application that tints your screen to neutralize the blue light is another fast and effective option you have to instantly reduce exposure to blue light. It can make a big difference when you can't afford to take too many breaks or when you need to use your devices during the evening hours.
