Ever wonder what Night Shift mode does to your phone, aside from giving your screen a yellowish hue? Settings like Night Shift block blue light emission, the types of wavelengths that are at the higher end of the light spectrum, right before UV.
While there's nothing wrong with getting blue light in small amounts (after all, it's found all around us in nature as well as via our tech devices),researchsuggests there could be a negative impact of overloading on blue light, namely on sleeping. This short wavelength can stimulate energy, so much so that our bodies may associate blue light with daytime. That means the longer you're looking at your computer or smartphone, the harder it will be for you to get to bed at night.
Considering many of us have to work at least eight hours a day on our laptops, we unwind by watching shows on Netflix, and we keep in touch with our loved ones over FaceTime, it's easy to see why most of us will feel the side effects of blue light exposure now more than ever.
For the masses of us who can't quit a day's worth of work or entertainment (especially in this day and age of social distancing), blue-light-blocking glasses can at least help make your screen time healthier.
