ALL ABOUT LIGHT

DO I NEED PROTECTION FROM BLUE LIGHT?

Light is fundamental for our vision and overall well-being. Light allows us to see colours, shapes and details and regulates our cognitive performance, mood and sleep/wake cycle. Parts of the light spectrum can also be the cause of premature eye ageing. The impact from UV rays accumulate overtime and can result in the development of cataracts. Blue-Violet light is present everywhere, mainly from the sun and, in smaller amounts, from LED lighting and is one factor recently identified that can cause damage to retinal cells. By reducing Blue-Violet light exposure can support retinal cell survival.

EMBEDDED INNOVATION
