Beyond ordinary screen protection: Eyesafe helps protect you from blue light.
80% of what children learn is through their eyes.¹
Screen time is on the rise and children’s eyes are vulnerable to high-energy blue light. On average, children ages 8-12 in the United States spend 4-6 hours a day watching or using screens, and teens spend up to 9 hours.²
All digital devices emit blue light, which may contribute to sleep disruption and impace academic performance, health and safety.³
Eyesafe® patented technology is developed with leading ophthalmologists and optometrists to reduce peak levels of high-energy blue light and maintain vivid color.
What is blue light? Why worry?
Blue light, also known as high-energy visible (HEV) light, is a color in the visible light spectrum that can be seen by human eyes. Children may be more vulnerable because their eyes dont have the same blue light-filtering ability that adult eyes have. ⁴
Overexposure to intense blue light emitted by our phones, laptops and monitors may have effects on our health⁵, such as:
• visual fatigue
• sleep disruption
• long-term vision problems
No compromise for your eyes
