Today’s classrooms are increasingly digital, but screen time exposes students to high-energy, short wavelength blue light from our devices. Potential risks include:
Screen time, blue light and student wellbeing
Children are vulnerable to excessive screen time, partially because their still-developing eyes allow for more blue light to reach their retinas. Additionally, children often hold devices closer to their eyes and use their devices every day, raising concern among doctors about potential health risks. Eyesafe solutions help protect students in and out of the classroom with advanced blue light protection.
“My patients spend countless hours on screens. I’m very concerned about how blue light is affecting our sleep and eye health. I suggest reducing exposure as much as possible.”
– Dr. Molly McDonald, President of The Vision Performance Center of Minnesota, Member Eyesafe Vision Health Advisory Board
