Autumn or the blue light season

Daylight saving time, All Saints' Day holidays, and shorter days are all signs announcing the blue light season.

lunettes de lecture pour la saison de la lumière bleue

We come home from work, the children from school, it's 5 p.m., the sun is already setting, night is approaching. Unlike long summer evenings spent outdoors, autumn and winter send us back inside our homes, face-to-face with our various screens, sources of harmful blue light.

Whatever our age, we spend at least an hour more in front of our television during this period.
During these rainy, snowy days and these dark, cold evenings, we use LEDs for lighting, another source of blue light.

However, this blue light is harmful to our body. It disrupts the circadian cycle (biological clock) and can lead to eating and sleeping disorders. Furthermore, artificial peaks of blue light are extremely harmful to the eyes. They destroy retinal cells.

Winter, this season when we enjoy our indoors, nestled comfortably in our armchair, sofa or bed while surfing on television, tablet or computer; this winter is therefore the blue light season. This invisible enemy slips in front of our eyes, during our daily activities during these shorter days and thanks to the lack of exposure to natural light.

How to effectively protect your eyes from blue light

Let's short-circuit this intruder and protect ourselves with anti-blue light glasses, and if we didn't have any, what an essential gift to give ourselves or to offer to those around us for Christmas.

We offer innovative blue light glasses for children and teenagers, blue light computer glasses for under 40s and anti-blue light reading glasses.
