Not sure what else to add, its been scientifically proven that blue light kills your photoreceptors. Use the Cinema setting on your TV or choose a "Warm" color temperature (it should actually be called this) to reduce the strain. Lineage OS on Android has had an option for this for years now.

i find it more comfortable to use when the blue-light filter is on. I still don't know whether it's a placebo effect or not.

Blue light definitely damages your eyes, I started to lose my eyesight recently, I think false myopia induced by eye strain, avoiding blue light allowed my eyes to recover though

One major problem with these homemade tier fixes like "cinema mode" is that the backlight actually remains blue, not matter what you do. Even if the screen seems yellowish, there's a huge spike at around 450 nm in the spectrum.
Warm colors are like orgasms for some peoples eyes.

What's a good replacement for f.lux? I hate how it fucking automates everything rather than letting me do it manually, automatically coming out of movie mode or getting bright as fuck at 3 in the morning

Is it bad to turn your phone to lowest brightnest with the blue light filter on? I do this because it helps me fall asleep, its so dim you cant reaply see it when the lights are on

>blue light fucks up your eyesight >article talks about speeding up blindness in old people with macular degeneration Our species evolved on a planet with a blue sky and a fusion powered blue light machine illuminating it. You'll be fine. Reevaluate when your doc says you have macular degeneration.
Probably not that bad, but really, you should avoid darkness as much as you can. I'm not sure what the differential would be with full brightness in fully lit room and lowest brightness in darkness.

This. Not to mention that white light is made of red, green, and BLUE light.

Justin Allen
But sunlight contains blue light in amounts that overwhelm mobile phones by orders of magnitude. Why, in the face of that, would mobile phone usage even make a significant difference? I've also never heard of people spending more time outside in the sun growing worse eyesight than people who sit indoors all day; rather the other way around. Clearly, there is some qualifier to these statements.
>avoiding blue light allowed my eyes to recover though Meanwhile in the article: >Photoreceptor cells do not regenerate in the eye. When they’re dead, they’re dead for good. Placebo confirmed.

Henry Hernandez

Why would you think that? The problem is that most colors contain some use of the blue subpixels.
Zachary Williams
In bright light your pupils contract to reduce the amount of light hitting your retina. This is actually why phone screens look dimmer outdoors: their brightness doesn't change, your eyes change.
But yeah, the article is obvious clickbait.
Gabriel Robinson
>For those wanting to protect their eyes from blue light, Dr Karunarathne advises wearing sunglasses that can filter both UV and blue light outside and avoiding browsing on mobile phones or tablets in the dark.
Camden Lee
where there's significantly less blue light reflected than, say, green or brown what happens with a phone is that the light level is low, but the percentage of that light that is blue is relatively high, so your pupils dilate to let more light in, allowing a larger amount of the more harmful wavelengths in when you're outside they contract, so all in all the same amount of light is entering your eyes in both situations
Lincoln Flores
what if u look at the sky
Noah Perry
Maybe. I guess a full dark theme would be better. But regardless, you have control over the hardware screen (usually) so why not start there? Op here when I read this, I switched over EVERYTHING, including my TV that I use for vidya to warm/cinema, my eyes don't strain as badly now. This TV is old af but it still had the settings to control color temp (sony bravua from like 2006
Samuel Roberts
I did see that, but still, I've never heard that people working outdoors in the sun grow worse eyesight than people sitting indoors all day erry day. Well aware, but there's still an overwhelmingly larger amount of blue light all around. >where there's significantly less blue light reflected than, say, green or brown The sky often takes up literally half of your field of vision. >so all in all the same amount of light is entering your eyes in both situations So therefore, being outdoors is just as bad, quite simply? Again, that's a sentiment I've never heard elsewhere.
Bentley Foster
I dunno about you, but looking at the sky on a bright day physically hurts, even if the sun isn't in my field of vision
because there's no backlight in that situation, so stuff like f.lux or whatever works better
Julian Flores
What do you recommend? I don't know but I've set mine to be all day just in case. Not fucking risking my eyes.
Charles Nelson
>because there's no backlight in that situation, so stuff like f.lux or whatever works better I don't think anyone is arguing that TFTs emit blue light when their blue subpixels are completely turned off. It's just that most colors, even when using the piss filter, require some amount of blue light, and unlike real-life situations where such colors can simply have intermediate frequencies, in RGB displays they must be produced by using some amount of the blue subpixels.
Benjamin Robinson
>Use the Cinema setting on your TV or just throw it out of your life along with the yiddish brainwash programming
>filter blue light Hence why I wrote those tips in the OP, dumdum
Ryan King
>So therefore, being outdoors is just as bad, quite simply? the same amount of light overall is entering your eyes, but there's a much higher percentage of harmful blue light coming from your phone
Aiden Thomas
That's fucking retarded. I'm 40, looked at CRT monitors for years and my eyesight is perfect. You guys must have mutt genes.
Jace Thompson
If it is as they say, the ratio of blue to non-blue light shouldn't matter, only the absolute amount of blue light entering the eyes.
Nathaniel King
How many people actually wear sunglasses outside most of the time?
Jace Campbell
>not wearing yellow glasses to feel like it's summer all year round
>Well aware, but there's still an overwhelmingly larger amount of blue light all around.
That is true.
According to Google the human eye's pupil rangef from about f/2.1 to about f8.3 which is about 4 stops. That's the different between sunny conditions and shade.
>Look up for recent pictures of OP's girl >Already looks like a whore
Like clockwork.
Grayson Lee
that's the point, when there's a higher percentage of blue light, your eyes are letting in more blue light on principle it's not a perfect analogy, but think of your pupils like a pipe you can only fit so much water through that pipe at a time, so the absolute amount of water going through it never changes let's say you take the reservoir of water that's being pushed through the pipe, and pour some lemon juice in it the absolute amount of liquid going through the pipe hasn't changed, but now some of it is lemon juice, say 5% or so now let's say your completely replace the water with lemon juice, so that 100% of the liquid going through the pipe is lemon juice the absolute amount of lemon juice in your pipe is now 20x the amount that it was before, but the pipe supports it just fine same deal with your eyes - if the percentage of blue light at your eyes is higher, assuming the brightness is above a certain threshold, the absolute amount of blue light hitting your retina will also be higher
Robert Anderson
I realize all that, but I'm still saying that when you're out in the open, your entire field of vision is filled with bright light, most of it containing a non-trivial amount of blue wavelengths. Combine that with scattering in the vitreous body and whatnot, and your eyes are just bathing in it, especially the parts of it looking at the sky or white/light-grey objects, which isn't exactly uncommon. It should be at the very least comparable to looking at a small phone screen in the dark.
There may be some kind of case to be made that looking at a small phone screen focuses all the light at a narrow part of the retina, and that might be meaningful. But still, it seems it ought to be comparable to some degree, which is why I'm saying that there has to be some kind of qualifier to the ideas presented in the article. It sounds much too simple.
Anthony Brown
It's clickbait for dipshits, the atmosphere literally lets more blue light in from the sun than any other color and your eyes were evolved on this planet.
If I were to continue speculating, there may be a case to be made that RGB screens need to overcompensate with more extreme blue wavelengths due to the lack of intermediary wavelengths between green and blue, which would make up a much greater part of more black-body-like spectra such as the sun, and that therefore white/blue light from RGB screens is more harmful than the same experienced color from the sun. But I obviously don't know if that's the actual truth.

CRT MASTERRACE WINS AGAIN, ENJOY YOU'RE BEING BLIND LCDFAGS
1) Perfect black levels 2) Flawless off-axis viewing 3) Much faster refresh rate than LCD 4) Warmer, more natural image (thanks to scan lines and small granules) 5) Far longer life-span 6) Not subject to manufacture problems such as dead-pixels 7) Good range of compatibility with lower or non-standard resolutions without blurring
Given ultimate space and money the world's best CRT could easily crush the world's best LCD. So tell me Jow Forums, why do you like your inferior screens that companies such as Samsung have brainwashed you to think is better than what already existed? The only cost-savings are on their end.
And the funny thing is you guys keep buying this crappy LCD technology and giving away your free CRTs on Craigslist. A fool and his dollar are soon parted I guess.
And before you start yapping about IPS panels: Enjoy your slow G2G response to switch pixels already, not to mention that hidden input and scalar lag. Luckily, CRT has no such bullshit.
The only semi-legitimate point I've heard against CRTs regards weight, but you don't bitch about the weight of a prospective couch while furniture shopping, do you? Didn't think so.
>pic As an Indian man, this is fucking hot. >tfw no qt3.14 non Indian grill will ever speak sweet nothings into my ear in my native tongue I use a blue light filter at night time, to help fall asleep. It doesn't really work, I can't fall asleep easily.
>TheGuardian Also >Continuous optical activation (OA) of cells expressing opsins was performed at every one second (1Hz) using the 0.22 μW of 445nm laser across the selected region and blue light exposure on cells without opsins was done with 4.86 μW of 445nm laser. The laser power of light exposure was measured using a light meter (Ophir PD300-UV). Goddamn pajeet doctors man. Can't trust them.

Brody Scott
>What do you recommend? Honestly I'm looking for a solution myself. I'm also very sensitive to flickering and unfortunately most monitors use PWM backlight control which makes things even worse, so I have to use my monitors on 100% backlight. If your monitor is "flicker free" (which means the LEDs are current controlled) then that could be a solution.
For some reason when I use night mode or even f.lux, my eyes hurt even more. I think it has to do with contrast though and not blue light per se, but I'm not sure.
What really helps though is when I turn on a regular light in my room so I'm not just looking at a bright blue screen in otherwise complete darkness in my room.
Another solution could be blue light filtering glasses which is kind of an "emerging market". I'm looking into this right now.

THINKPAD X2001 PVA CCFL MASTERRACE REPORTS IN 1. PVA has better black levels than CRT. Oled has much better black levels than both. Don't know about plasma screens, though 2. idk 3. TFT is static, no need to refesh, more stable picture 4. my CCFL goes yellowish, is warm enough. CCFL has less of a blue problem than LED. OLED is even better. 5. depends, in TFT-TV you have only to replace capacitors or ccfl. 6. Dead pixels? had my last dead pixel in screens from 2003 7. that's right. We need better scaling algorithms! Result then would be like minecraft.

FTR, if you go read the paper being touted in this article, they were blasting pure blue light several times brighter than sunlight directly into the held-open eyes of albino rats that had their pupils dilated wide open. And the light caused damage! You don't say!
Chase Clark
If we're talking about reading comprehension, the following points might be interesting to you: >blue light alone or retinal without blue light had no effect on cells.
Chase Adams
>>blue light alone or retinal without blue light had no effect on cells. doesn't change the completely unrealistic test circumstances. They disabled all the rats' eyes' defensive mechanism and practically fried their retinas to get their results. That's California-grade testing right there.
