Glass screen protector repair tricks: The eye is not very good at blocking blue light. Anterior structures of the adult human eye (the cornea and lens) are very effective at blocking UV rays from reaching the light-sensitive retina at the back of the eyeball. In fact, less than one percent of UV radiation from the sun reaches the retina, even if you aren’t wearing sunglasses. (Keep in mind, though, that sunglasses that block 100 percent of UV are essential to protect these and other parts of the eye from damage that could lead to cataracts, snow blindness, a pinguecula and/or pterygium, and even cancer.) On the other hand, virtually all visible blue light passes through the cornea and lens and reaches the retina.
Then use the same method to pry the other three corners of the screen protector, and use a little more force when smashing, so that the four sides of the screen protector can be pulled up. After the four corners are picked up, grab the lower corner and pull up. Then the whole screen protector will start to loosen, and then pull up the four corners until it is removed. Congratulation: the task of removing the old screen protector is now completed. At this point, the screen protector will automatically stick to the screen and slowly expand to the surrounding area. Take out the squeeze card, press the edge from the top to the bottom, and drive the bubbles away. Read a few extra details at how to put on screen protector.
You may be wondering why using a computer is so much harder on your eyes than reading printed materials like a book or magazine. The main reason is that when we stare at computer screens, we tend to blink less. In fact, while focusing on digital displays, a person’s blink rate can be reduced by a third to a half, which causes their eyes to dry out. Additionally, many of us are not viewing these screens from the optimal distance. In recent years, a popular solution to this problem has been blue light filters; namely, expensive computer glasses. However, these glasses, as well as other blue light filters, are no more effective at reducing the symptoms of eye strain than a neutral filter. Instead of spending money on something that may not help, try these simple and effective tips first.
We can also expect to see new phone releases later this year that integrate blue light-reduction dye, and the Consumer Electronics Show in January 2019 will show off commercial grade products which incorporate these features. Product designers should help accelerate this change by working with companies to integrate HEV-blockers right into the screens of the products they create. Also consider indicator colors on connected electronic devices; a warm orange will always be more welcome than a bright blue. Until the tech industry fully addresses the problems caused by blue light, there’s a number of steps we can take — in our household, and in our civic halls.
The electromagnetic rays just beyond the red end of the visible light spectrum are called infrared — they are warming, but invisible. (The “warming lamps” you see keeping food warm at your local eatery emit infrared radiation. But these lamps also emit visible red light so people know they are on! The same is true for other types of heat lamps.) Rays on the red end of the visible light spectrum have longer wavelengths and, therefore, less energy. Rays on the blue end of the spectrum have shorter wavelengths and more energy. See additional details at Perfectsight.
