Computer screens blue light may cause eye damage I recently got
this newsletter from my eye doctor's office. It talks about the
dangers of blue light from fluorescent lights, computer screens,
tablets, and so on. It makes we want to go back to film
photography instead of digital so I don't have to work with
LCD's. Here is a link: http://www.macular.org/bluelite.html and

"BLUE LIGHT HAZARDS Blue light is everywhere. It exists in the
very fiber of our culture. How can you protect yourself? We
learn at a young age about the visible light spectrum, you know,
the rainbow? Well, each color, or wavelength, of the light
spectrum has a unique effect on us, beyond the color you painted
your bedroom in high school. Researchers have shown that light
influences our hormone secretion, heart rate, alertness,
obesity, sleep propensity, body temperature, disease and gene
expression. That pretty much covers everything a person ought to
be concerned about health wise.
