If you spend a lot of time staring at screens as part of your day job, are an avid gamer, or tend to watch movies to unwind in the evenings, then chances are you've been exposed to a fair amount of blue light. Even with one of the best monitors for graphic design with blue-light blocking filters set, this high-energy visible light can still potentially cause eye fatigue, impact your sleep, enhance digital eye strain, and in severe cases lead to vision problems.
I've been using prescription blue-light-blocking glasses for over three years now, and I have to be honest, I really can't tell if they work or not. My job as an e-commerce writer for Creative Bloq means that I spend eight hours a day, five days a week staring at my laptop screen, and then once the working day is over you'll probably find me editing photos or gaming on my PlayStation 5 console.
