What is blue light and why is it a problem?

Blue light is high-energy visible light that is emitted by LED screens of smartphones, computers, and televisions, among other sources. Naturally, this blue light is also present in sunlight and plays a role in our energy levels and alertness during the day. However, in the evening, too much artificial blue light can be detrimental: it suppresses the production of melatonin (our sleep hormone), disrupting your biological clock. Moreover, continuous exposure to bright blue light can strain your eyes and lead to complaints such as eye pain, stinging eyes, and difficulty falling asleep.
