Protect and nourish your eyes from digital damage
Vision, the most dominant of our senses, plays a critical role in every facet and stage of our lives.
However, in today’s digital age, our eyes are under more strain than ever. Across the Asia-Pacific (APAC) region, prolonged screen time, urban lifestyles, and increased exposure to artificial blue light contribute to a surge in vision-related issues.
Growing impact of Digital Eye Strain
With increased screen time, vision problems caused by Computer Vision Syndrome (CVS) have become the most prevalent. CVS, involves visual fatigue, blurred or double vision dry, gritty or burning eyes, and headaches. It has been shown to occur in over 70% of individuals using digital devices for six or more hours a day.
A major contributor to these symptoms is blue light exposure from digital devices. Artificial blue light generated by digital devices penetrates our skin and eyes, with excessive exposure causing DNA damage, oxidative stress and photoaging. This harms our eyes and skin by worsening visual fatigue, dryness and myopia and accelerating skin ageing and pigmentation. Additionally, environmental factors like pollution and UV exposure further exacerbate eye health risks, accelerating conditions such as cataracts and age-related macular degeneration.
Effects of Excessive Blue Light Exposure
Prolonged use of blue-light emitting digital devices
Eyes
Strains eyes; worsens visual fatigue, dryness and shortsightedness(myopia). May also harm the retina and other ocular structures.
Skin
Contributes to photoaging, skin damage, collagen breakdown and accelerated skin ageing (wrinkle formation and reduced elasticity). Can increase pgimentation, especially in people with darker skin tones.
Sleep
Suppresses melatonin, disturbing circadian rhythm and sleep quality.
Inflammation & Free Radicals
Increases oxidative stress and inflammation in the skin and eyes.
