Blue light from computer screens and smartphones stimulates eyes and can cause sleep problems — but a new analysis finds blue light blocking glasses may not be much help.
This research only says that the glasses are probably unhelpful. As far as I know it’s still accepted that blue light is stimulating and can mess with sleep, cause headaches, etc.
“Light bounces around, getting in the shade does nothing against sunburn because the sunrays are bound to get to your skin from elsewhere than just a straight line”
That’s uselessly pedantic. But to answer your question, and to use a comparison more in line with the original comment: I think most people won’t get sunburnt during the night, enough so that it shouldn’t be a concern.
I knew it wasn’t bullshit as it does help your sleep pattern because of your body is response to light temperatures for your circadian rhythm, but I would roll my eyes when people thought it would help with eye strain etc
For anyone else though, sleep hygiene is a big thing. The thought being that there shouldn’t be anything with a screen in your bedroom (tv, tablet, etc) and you shouldn’t do anything in the bedroom besides sleep and fuck (and dress as well obviously). I removed screens 4 years ago and it’s so much easier to fall asleep.
True. I believe you can accomplish the same effect if you’re able to use long curtains to “room off” your sleeping area. I guess it depends on what your living situation is obviously if that’s feasible.
I’ve always thought the whole blue light thing was kinda bullshit

Well, light bounces around. Its… bound to get in the eyes from elsewhere that just a straight line…

So do you think you can’t get burnt on a cloudy day?

There’s actually some truth to that

Skill issue, just close your eyes and go to sleep
I love that I can do that.

This is some real multiple-rooms-having ass advice.

There’s less light hitting parts that are in the shade.
The light bouncing around is the reason it’s the shade and not a dark void of pure darkness… it’s still less light.
