What is a blue light filter?
A blue light filter is a tool designed to reduce the amount of blue light emitted by electronic devices like phones, tablets, and computers. Blue light is a type of high-energy visible light that can cause eye strain and disrupt sleep patterns. Blue light filters work by blocking the blue light of the screen, which reduces the amount of blue light reaching your eyes.
What is the dangers of blue light？
Eye Fatigue
Prolonged exposure to electronic device screens can lead to eye fatigue and discomfort, presenting symptoms such as dryness, redness, and blurry vision, commonly referred to as "digital eye strain."
Impact on Sleep
Blue light can suppress the secretion of melatonin, a hormone that regulates sleep cycles. Using electronic devices in the evening may result in difficulties falling asleep and decreased sleep quality.
Retinal Damage
Long-term excessive exposure to blue light is believed to increase the risk of damage to retinal cells, potentially leading to vision issues such as macular degeneration over time.
Headaches and Migraines
For some individuals, blue light can trigger headaches or migraines, particularly in environments with strong light or flickering screens.
Skin Damage
Although primarily affecting the eyes, studies suggest that certain wavelengths of blue light may also pose potential risks to the skin, contributing to skin aging.
Visual Discomfort
Prolonged exposure to blue light may increase visual sensitivity, meaning that the eyes may feel uncomfortable in bright or flickering environments.
How does the blue light filter work?
A blue light filter works by using a special coating or material that blocks or absorbs blue light. When applied to your device's screen, it reduces the amount of blue light emitted.
For example, PERFECTSIGHT uses its self-developed rare earth coating eye protection coating, which can block at least 55% of the blue light from the screen. The protector also maintains good clarity and transparency while offering durable protection against scratches and impacts. In addition, you can also use the application of specialized software adjustments to the display settings of the device.

How to choose a blue light filter?
When selecting a blue light filter, consider the following key factors to ensure optimal eye protection and device compatibility:
Device Compatibility: Ensure the filter is designed for your specific device (e.g., smartphone, tablet, computer) to guarantee a perfect fit and optimal performance.
Transparency and Clarity: Choose a filter that maintains good transparency and clarity, minimizing any negative impact on screen quality. High-quality filters are designed to reduce blue light without significantly altering color accuracy or visual sharpness.
Durability: Select a durable blue light filter, such as tempered glass, which offers superior protection against scratches and impacts, ensuring long-lasting use and consistent performance.
Additional Features: Some filters come with extra benefits like anti-glare properties or privacy protection, enhancing your overall experience and providing multiple solutions in one product.
