How Does Screen Light Impact Our Health?
Avoiding screens in modern life is impossible—even if you aren’t using a device or computer, screens are all around, from car displays to ads in grocery stores and even when checking in at the doctor’s office. Screens expose us to high levels of blue light and the consequences are all too familiar: eye strain, headaches and migraine attacks, photophobia, disrupted sleep, and general discomfort. In fact, researchers estimate that up to 90% of people have visual symptoms after prolonged screen time from computers.2
For those already grappling with health conditions exacerbated by light, like migraine, dry eye, or concussion, screens pose an even greater challenge. Research indicates that the wavelengths of light that screens emit in high amounts can cause pain and other symptoms, making the need for effective protection essential.3
As if that were not enough, many LCD and LED screens emit an invisible pulsing or flicker that our brains pick up even when our eyes cannot.4 That has been shown to aggravate a wide range of symptoms like headaches and light sensitivity, especially for those who are already sensitive.
This is why many people prioritize light management as part of their screen time.
TheraSpecs for Screen Light Management
A number of TheraSpecs lens options are available to help you reduce the problematic light that you are exposed to when using your screens and other devices:
TheraSpecs Flex
If you seek subtle protection from screen light, TheraSpecs Flex is your ideal choice for everyday computer or screen glasses. We also recommend adding Flex to your light management plan if you’re living with mild light sensitivity. Shop Flex Lenses ➜
TheraSpecs FL-Pro™
If you are living with strong sensitivity to screens and/or have a health condition linked to light sensitivity, we recommend TheraSpecs FL-Pro for your light management strategy. This FL-41-tinted lens blocks the highest levels of unwanted light identified for maximum protection. Shop FL-Pro Lenses ➜
TheraSpecs FL-Blend™
FL-Blend also uses FL-41 to target irritating wavelengths of light from screen time. The tint is more subtle than FL-Pro to strike a nice balance of protection in a less noticeable lens. Shop FL-Blend Lenses ➜
TheraSpecs Contrast HEV™
TheraSpecs Contrast HEV filters blue light that our eyes do not focus well. If you wear these lenses as part of an overall light management plan, they may help increase visual contrast and sharpness and/or help you if you are living with screen-related discomfort. Shop Contrast HEV Lenses ➜
TheraSpecs Sleep
This lens filters 100% of blue light that may affect your sleeping patterns and melatonin production. Wear these a few hours before bed when looking at your screen or watching TV. Shop Sleep Lenses ➜
In addition to offering excellent protection from screens, these lens options also protect from fluorescent lights, LEDs and other artificial light sources.
Are great for any activities associated with screens, including gaming, TV watching, computer and smartphone use
Filter more problematic light than clear- or nearly-clear lenses marketed for blue light filtering5
