Have you ever gotten a headache from staring at a computer or TV screen for too long? This may be because of the blue light exposure from the various screens we look at all-day, which may cause eye damage. While scientific research on the long-term damage isn’t yet clear, if you stare at blue light screens too long you may experience symptoms such as blurry vision or dry eyes.
But what if we told you that blue light may make you age faster? According to a recent study done using blue light on flies, chronic blue light exposure can lead to premature aging. Blue light may have subtle effects on cells like your skin or subcutaneous fat.
We have the solutions to help turn down the blue light on the screens you use every day so you can continue using and watching your devices without causing aging or harm to your eyes.
Some Android devices may allow you to set a schedule for your blue or night lighting. If you want the display to always be warmer to help eliminate blue light, just make the schedule so it’s always on (IE starts 12:00 AM and ends 11:59pm).
You can also manually enable this setting to stay on until the following day.
These steps are the same for all Galaxy devices.
You can also manually enable this setting to stay on until the following day.
Pick a warmer temperature to help eliminate blue light. You can also set a schedule so your screen’s temperature changes only at night and in the morning.
While you can turn down the settings on all of your devices, you still want to protect your eyes. You can purchase a pair of blue light glasses to wear while working on your computer or watching TV for long periods of time. You can also put a blue light filter screen on your TV or computer so you don’t have to adjust your settings and blue light will always be filtered out.

I turned down the blue on my clock-radio display by remembering my experience with black and white photography 60 years ago. The way to darken skies for more contrast was to use a yellow filter, such as Wratten K-2.
I got a sheet of flexible transparent yellow plastic at an art supply store and cut a small piece to tape on the clock-radio. Perfect, easy, and cheap ($5 or so).
