Eye strain

Ocushield reduces eye strain

Blue light is a higher frequency wave that is similar to ultraviolet light. We all understand the importance of protecting our eyes from the harmful effects of the ultraviolet light in the sun’s rays, but we don’t all yet have the same concern for the blue light waves that are emitted from our devices when we are indoors. Yet, they have a similar effect on the eyes. Blue light acts like ultraviolet light from the sun, which can also strain your eyes, cloud your lens with cataracts and may even contribute to macular degeneration!

Blue light also messes with your circadian rhythm. Have you ever noticed that you have trouble falling asleep after spending a long time on your iPhone? Everyone loves to blame work-related stress, but it could also be your hormones working against you! Blue light fools your body into thinking that it’s the morning and that it’s time to rise and shine. So your brain gives you a shot of cortisol to help you start your day, the problem is that you should be getting a shot of melatonin instead.

Melatonin is the hormone that helps with a good, restful night’s sleep. Blue light will lower your melatonin and increase your cortisol, the opposite of a good night’s sleep.

Sleep is one of those things that we all take for granted until we don’t have it anymore. Poor sleep results in a host of problems that will wear you down faster than just about anything. In just a few days of poor sleep, there can be an increase in your blood sugar, your blood pressure and yes, you will be cranky and no fun to be around. Getting a good night’s sleep is essential to good health. Poor sleep has even been shown to cause increased weight gain. Let’s all agree that putting on a blue light screen filter is much easier than avoiding chocolate.

Ocushield protects your skin

Just like ultraviolet rays damage skin, so does blue light. Worried about the fine wrinkles around your eyes? Then you might want to reduce your exposure to the damaging rays of the sun, and blue light from digital screens that also damage your skin.

Once you install the Ocushield blue light filter, your face will be protected from the harmful blue light emitted by your iPhone.
