Mobile phones, televisions and computer screens are very harmful to your eyes
Every day we spend a lot of time looking at mobile phone screen and computer screen. As a result we are doing a lot of damage to our eyes. I can't look at the mobile phone screen for a long time. But if I look at the computer screen, I don't have much problem. So I can't say that the computer screen has no harmful effects. However, computer, TV and mobile phone screens have many harmful effects on the eyes. If you want to reduce the damage to your eyes, you need to know the science. I think it is very important, and essential, for every person to know.
Short wavelength blue light emitted from mobile phones and TV screens can kill eye cells.
When I look at the screen of a mobile phone, my eyes feel sore and dry. Sometimes I get headaches. Thus I realized that it is quite harmful. When I searched online for this, I found some more terrifying information. A group of Korean researchers have identified smart phone and television screens as harmful to human eye cells.
It was already known that short wavelength light rays are harmful to human eyes. Researchers claimed that high-intensity light sources, such as the short-wavelength rays of diode lamps, were harmful to the eyes.
Low-intensity blue light is emitted from mobile phone screens and television screens. Blue light that has shorter wavelengths can damage retinal cells. Blue light lines the light-sensitive layer of tissue that lies inside our eyes. It produces reactive oxygen species such as superoxide radicals in retinal cells, resulting in cell death.
Jung Soon Kang led the study, and they observed that short-wavelength blue light doubled the rate of death in human retinal cells compared to cells kept in the dark. You will surely understand when your eyes are suffering so much. Staring at mobile screens and computer screens for long periods of time can give you a kind of nagging feeling like I do. I blame the mobile phone screen more for the damage. My eyes feel dry and sore whenever I look at its screen.
Mobile phone, computer and television screens change the shape of our eyes
Mobile phone, computer and television screens are lengthening the curvature of our eyes as we stare at these screens for long periods of time. Dr. Aaron Miller, a pediatric ophthalmologist at Houston Eye Associates, explains how an eye shape is round. When we look at near objects, the shape of the eyeball is elongated. You can read the Guardian report for details
He says that this happens because of staring at a screen for too long. Looking up close causes our eye muscles to stretch and the lens to shift to make room for objects that are closer. Our eyes completely change form.
Changing the shape of eyes can make blind early because when people grow older, their retinas can break down. The ability to see distant objects may be reduced and vision problems may occur.
How do we protect our eyes?
You can understand that your eyes are suffering by noticing the symptoms, such as headaches, blurred vision, dry eyes and in extreme cases neck and shoulder pain. When we stare at the screen for a long time and prevent the eyes from blinking. Screens contain harmful rays. These problems occur due to all these reasons.
We don't have to stare at the screen for too long. You can use a technique. Give your eyes a break when you work for a long time. If you work on a computer for 20 minutes, look at an object 20 feet away for 20 seconds. Using this technique can reduce the discomfort of your eyes.
Reduce the brightness of your mobile phone. Use dark themes. Take steps to reduce the amount of light emitted from your mobile phone screen. Use high-resolution screens and use good quality screens that are less harmful to your eyes
As mentioned earlier, blue light is known to damage the eyes. If you wear glasses, the blue light will be reduced to hurt your eyes.
The most important thing is not to use mobile phone computer and watch TV unless necessary. Away from these, entertainment should be taken from nature. It will keep your body healthy and your eyes will be saved from blindness. As we are becoming more and more dependent on these devices, there is a need to invent advanced technologies that can protect our eyes. Today we will decide to protect our eyes and not use these devices unnecessarily. You take care of your eyes and avoid future blindness.

Thanks for reading
Best regards
Knowing the science helps a lot to human coexistence.
The fact that manufacturers of telephones and televisions are looking for ways to solve all those situations that affect human vision, they have not yet been able to find the technology that solves such detail. We must always, for our own good and visual health, maintain standards that help us in the solution to those problems caused by the light emitted by such devices.
Excellent your research. Regards @momins
Conocer la ciencia ayuda mucho a la coexistencia humana.
El hecho de que los fabricantes de teléfonos y televisores busquen la manera de que todas esas situaciones que afectan la visión humana, aún no han podido lograr encontrar la tecnología que solvente tal detalle. Siempre debemos, por nuestro propio bien y salud visual, mantener normas que nos ayuden en la solución a esos problemas causados por la luz emitida por tales aparatos.
Excelente tu investigación. Saludos @momins
Yes and If you use glasses that adjust to your eyes, you can at least get a little bit of protection from this blue light. thank you
There are also some glasses with blue lend that could help a bit!

I need this information the most. I basically spend over 15 hours everyday on my phone or laptop screen. Eyes are very important organs of the body that we must protect at all times. Thanks alot for sharing these important preventive measures. They are very helpful.
Thank you, We need to be more aware.
