Cramilo Eyewear Classic Rectangle Blue Light Blocker Glasses

Light matters! From long hours in front of the computer to long days in fluorescence, we get a lot of blue light. Especially in the evenings, when we're meant to be winding down. These blue blocking glasses help to fend off the excess, reducing eye strain and helping your body to stay in touch with its natural rhythms for healthier sleep patterns. We love these glasses, because they're the perfect companion for screen time - especially in the latter half of the day! 

One size fits most. Comes in a cloth drawstring bag.

How Blue Light Effects Your Health

One third of all visible light is considered blue light. The biggest source? The sun! Blue light certainly isn't bad, and in fact, it's necessary for our health. Blue light boosts alertness, helps memory and brain function, elevates mood, and regulates your body's natural wake and sleep cycle. 

So what's the big deal? Well, there's a time and place for everything, and artificial sources of blue light are all around us when the sun goes down. Artificial sources of blue light include fluorescent light, LED TVs, computer monitors, smartphones, and tablet screens. Children's eyes absorb more blue light, making them more susceptible to the negative effects of excess screen time.  

Excessive blue light: 

• Disrupts sleep patterns when absorbed before bedtime, as it affects when our bodies create melatonin.

• Evening exposure interrupts your circadian rhythm, reducing sleep quality and increasing susceptibility to disease 

• Can cause retinal cell damage 

• May contribute to cataracts, eye cancer and growths on the clear covering over the white part of the eye
