Do your eyes feel tired after staring at a computer all day? Or maybe you have trouble falling asleep after watching your favorite Netflix show? If so, you’re not alone. We are exposed to blue light, also known as HEV (high energy visible) light, every day. A certain amount of blue light exposure is normal, such as natural blue light from the sun. However, the screens we stare at in our daily lives also emit blue light. Too much exposure may cause adverse effects including: eye strain, blurry vision, headaches, trouble falling asleep, and even macular degeneration. That’s where blue light blockers come in. But not all blue light glasses are created equal. Keep reading to find out why the most effective blue light glasses feature yellow tinted lenses — and find the right pair for you!

How Do Blue Light Blockers Work?
Blue light blockers may have blue light filtering technology embedded within the lenses, or have a coating applied to the lenses. This filtering technology limits the amount of harmful blue light that reaches your retinas. Because blue light is a high energy visible light, our eyes cannot properly filter it out on their own. So blue light passes through the cornea, reaching our retinas, which can lead to vision problems like macular degeneration. Blue light glasses help our eyes by filtering out some of that harsh blue light. Therefore, wearing yellow tinted blue light filtering glasses when looking at your phone, your TV screen, or tablet can help limit adverse effects from excessive blue light exposure.
Why Yellow Tinted Glasses Are The Most Effective Blue Light Blockers
When shopping for blue light glasses, you may notice some lenses appear to have a blue hue, some are yellow, and some appear totally clear. While all of these options are helpful at blocking blue light, yellow is the best. Yellow is on the opposite end of the color wheel as blue. Yellow tinted glasses therefore, are more effective at blocking a high amount of blue light than other tinted lenses, while also allowing other wanted wavelengths of color to pass through the lens. The darker yellow tint intensity, the more blue light is blocked. So if you are looking for blue light glasses to alleviate the most symptoms listed above, yellow tinted glasses are a great choice.
