An IT specialist's perspective: what you personally need to know

Negative influence of the computer on the functioning of the eye apparatus

The eyes get very tired from looking at small objects on the computer screen. The strain on the visual apparatus is created by a bright computer screen and glare.

Why do my eyes get tired?

The entire visual system is protected from the monitor (shock, glare, flicker), and everything works really very hard, since these same effects cannot damage the eye. So the muscles overstrain, the lens constantly sharpens when flickering, the brain intensively processes frames to show a still picture with good sharpness.

Overstrain occurs in the cerebral cortex, and a signal is sent to the retina to reduce the flow of information. The person feels tired, the image blurs, lacrimation or dry mucous membranes begin, and sharpness is impaired.

BY THE WAY! A headache when working on a PC is also a sign of overwork. Most often, unpleasant sensations occur in the temples or the back of the head. This is how the body asks for a break.

Operating principle of computer glasses

Thanks to modern technologies, computer glasses are able to cope with the glow, glare, and lack of contrast at the same time. However, this may be ineffective if the patient’s deviations from normal vision are more than one unit. In this case, it is necessary to use glasses with diopters for operation. They should be selected by an ophthalmologist based on the results of a visual acuity test.

How do anti-computer glasses differ from regular ones?

Conventional lenses are made of special glass and can be equipped with anti-reflective coating or UV protection. But for them, protecting their eyes from the computer is just an additional feature. Conventional monofocal lenses cannot completely smooth out the negative impact of PC: their task is to correct focus.

Computer glasses can do this, since most of the work is done by a special metallized coating. It reflects harmful radiation and improves the perceived image.

NOTE! Opinions about such products as computer glasses differ because improper use significantly reduces their effectiveness. Contact a specialist to select an accessory, or read the instructions carefully.

Do you need glasses to use a computer?

So, do computer glasses help or not? Ophthalmologists answer: they help, provided that they are correctly selected and used in accordance with the manufacturer’s recommendations.

The eyepieces take on part of the load, thereby increasing the operating time. You need to use glasses made of glass or polymer periodically, otherwise the eye loses its own protective powers and becomes dependent on the glass (which acts as a lens).

The need for technical breaks remains, but you can do this less often - remove the frames every 2-3 hours, give your eyes a break from the radiation of the screen, and do gymnastics.

Office alternative! Sometimes managers prefer to take care of the health of their staff themselves and make computers safe; all they need is protective screens for monitors, which are cheaper than personal protection and sick leave.

Do computer glasses distort the image and colors on the monitor?

Since computer glasses are designed to block part of the light spectrum, they do not have 100% light transmission. This may cause some color distortion on the screen, but the distortion is minor. This does not create discomfort when working with graphics or photographs.

Who can wear computer glasses?

Anyone who spends a lot of time looking at a computer or phone screen can wear special glasses for working on a computer. At risk are office workers, students, schoolchildren, and people whose work involves spending a long time at the computer.

It is worth noting that glasses for working on a computer are intended for both people with poor vision and those who do not have vision problems.

Poor vision and glasses for working on a computer.

Computer glasses can be made according to absolutely any prescription: for farsightedness, myopia, astigmatism and presbyopia. Lenses can be monofocal (with one optical power) or multifocal (with several optical zones for far, middle and near distances). Specialists in the optical salon will help you choose glasses for each case individually.

Computer glasses - how do they work?

Invisible blue light, which has a negative effect on the body, comes from all monitors without exception, no matter what the latest technologies are used to manufacture them.

Why is there so much talk today about the dangers of blue radiation?

For millions of years man lived in natural conditions and saw nothing but nature. The eyes worked in the mode “conceived” by nature. The printing revolution, the industrial revolution - with the development of technology, the strain on the eyes naturally increased. But people started talking about the real danger to the eyes only recently, because it was with the advent of the Millennium that digital technologies began to develop at an incredibly fast pace. Just 10-15 years ago there was no such abundance of gadgets around us.

Blue light - natural and artificial

The waves of the blue-violet range are the shortest in the entire light spectrum - 380 - 500 nm (with a normal photosensitivity range of 500-600 nm). Short waves have higher energy and are scattered more intensely. It is impossible to avoid exposure to blue light on the eyes, since it is part of the solar radiation and allows us to stay awake. It is blue light waves that give color to the sky and ocean. It is under their influence that we sometimes squint from the irritating glare of the sun. But this discomfort cannot be compared with exposure to artificial blue light.

invisible blue radiation from computers and smartphones

Any image on the display, even the most adapted one for a book page, is strikingly different from the text printed on paper. It consists of many bright flickering dots. Since blue-violet waves are the shortest in the light spectrum, they refract more intensely, and it takes more effort to focus on the picture. The tension also increases because, for example, we usually keep smartphones at an unforgivably close distance from a physiological point of view.

“Computer Vision Syndrome” - a disease of the 21st century

People who regularly work at a computer for a long time and do not part with gadgets very often begin to complain of itching and burning in the eyes, headaches, nervousness, unreasonable aggression, and gradually loss of visual acuity. By the end of the day, vision becomes blurred and images blur. We don't notice the flickering of the image on the monitor, but it is always present and our eyes strain much more than when reading books.

Intense blue radiation emanating from computers and smartphones is one of the causes of insomnia, which now affects a record number of residents of megacities. It turns out to be a real vicious circle - we get incredibly tired, but we cannot rest properly, since our biorhythms are disrupted. Fatigue accumulates and transforms into severe stress, which people in the pre-digital era had never even heard of.

protected from computer radiation

Blue radiation is most dangerous for children, since the child’s lens is much more transparent than the lens of an adult and absorbs more rays of the blue spectrum. Under the influence of blue light, there is intense production of free radicals that have a destructive effect on photoreceptors, which, if no measures are taken, can lead to damage to the retina.

computer eye protection

The principle of operation of a coating that protects the eyes from blue radiation

To help our body, we need to effectively protect our eyes from harmful radiation. To bring your eyes closer to natural conditions in which they can rest, you need to “cut out” the intense blue light emanating from digital devices. This is the function that special coatings from various manufacturers of glasses lenses perform. A multi-layer filter is applied to the lenses, blocking the access of harmful rays to our eyes. Not all blue rays, of course, otherwise our perception of colors will be disrupted.

Areas of the light spectrum harmful to the eyes are selectively “cut out” using special filters, without disturbing the perception of texts and images. According to their optical characteristics, these filters are designed in such a way that the spectral composition of visible light is optimized, improving image resolution. Eye strain is noticeably reduced, and overall well-being improves.

Computer glasses in Kronos Optics stores

In Kronos Optics stores you can always order glasses lenses with a special Blue Control coating, thanks to which you will be reliably protected from dangerous computer radiation.

By coating glasses lenses with Blue Control, 18.1% of harmful blue rays are reflected without reaching the lens. This is enough to make you feel as comfortable as possible throughout the day, even with fairly intense exercise.

Unlike lenses with insufficiently high-quality Blue blockers, lenses with Blue Control coating increase contrast and image clarity. In addition, this innovative coating helps reduce glare. Another important factor in the popularity of lenses with Blue Control coating is that, thanks to the combination with the multifunctional Hi-Vision LongLife coating, they are highly scratch resistant.

Doctors' opinion

Ophthalmologists are confident that buying protective glasses is a good decision if you want to reduce the harm your computer causes to your eyesight. But it's worth remembering a few points:

  1. When choosing glasses, you need to consult a specialist. You need to see a doctor in any case, and not just if you want tinted lenses or plan to increase protection from ultraviolet radiation.
  2. Computer glasses should be comfortable. The weight of the glasses, the type of frame, the width and other parameters - everything must be selected perfectly so that the glasses themselves do not cause headaches.
  3. Special lenses are not a panacea. You can't work in a dark room, without breaks, at a monitor that's mounted too high, and hope that specially coated lenses will be enough to make your eyes stop hurting by the end of the day. It is important to follow the rules of working at the computer in any case.
  4. Points are selected individually. The doctor clarifies the specifics of the patient’s work, his wishes, takes into account age, measures the interpupillary distance and other parameters. And only on the basis of all this data he selects lenses and glasses.

Indications for wearing computer optics

  1. Rapid visual fatigue.
  2. Redness and dry eye syndrome.
  3. Burning and photophobia.
  4. Headaches and drowsiness.
  5. Decreased mental performance.

If there are initially problems with vision, and it is corrected with glasses, it’s okay. We go to the optics and apply an anti-computer coating to the glasses lenses (not ourselves, of course). If contact optics are used to correct vision, then the best lenses for working at a computer are those that have ultraviolet protection.

Reviews from ophthalmologists: is it worth using computer glasses?

Ophthalmologists recommend using any means of protection when standing in front of a PC screen for a long time. These can also be special lenses. Doctors note that it is important not only to use them, but also to know how to do it correctly. If all protection is reduced only to their use, risks cannot be avoided. For them to be as effective as possible, you should rationally arrange your workplace, maintain the correct distance between your face and the monitor, and also take regular breaks. Doctors also note that the wrong choice of lenses can aggravate vision problems. Before purchasing, you should definitely be examined by an ophthalmologist. At a doctor's appointment, you can find out the causes of existing problems that will need to be eliminated not only with optical devices. Experts note that such glasses require getting used to, which may take several days. High-quality products from trusted companies are safe, but it is better to avoid fakes. It is also important to understand that they will not solve the problem instantly, but will only partially eliminate the negative influencing factors. Ophthalmologists recommend using computer glasses when there is a real need for it, that is, typical symptoms of the negative effects of light and monitor flickering on the organs of vision are observed.

Types of computer glasses

There are no high-quality ready-made glasses for working on a computer; all products are selected individually, the doctor takes into account a number of parameters and selects the optimal spectacle lenses for each patient.

It is worth clarifying that the lenses themselves are not computer lenses; they are made so by a special coating. And just these coatings are different. For example, you may be recommended budget coatings that completely block blue-violet light. This is important when working at a computer, but you cannot wear such glasses lenses for more than 4 hours a day, since blue-violet light is important for a full perception of the world, life activities, etc., its long-term absence can cause headaches, depression, etc.

Or you can choose more expensive options for computerized lens coatings that selectively block parts of the blue-violet spectrum: they block only harmful light and let in useful and necessary light. Glasses with such lenses can be worn without time restrictions. If you work a lot with both the computer and documents, then an excellent option would be computer glasses, the lens design of which also provides support for accommodation. Such glasses reduce the load on the visual system when frequently switching vision from the computer to documents and back.

Coatings to protect against harmful light from gadgets can be applied to lenses of different designs: progressive lenses, monofocal, bifocal, office, toric, etc.

      2.4.1 Tips for maintaining good vision
  • All people who, due to their professional activities, are forced to constantly spend a lot of time at the computer, sooner or later encounter a number of unpleasant symptoms:

    • a burning sensation appears in the eyes (the person experiences a similar sensation, as if grains of sand had fallen under his eyelids);
    • visual acuity decreases;
    • painful sensations appear when turning the eyeballs;
    • there is pain in the frontal part of the head;
    • tear production increases or, conversely, increased dryness of the eye is observed.

    Doctors know this pathological condition as “computer vision syndrome.” A combination of different factors leads to its appearance. Due to prolonged exposure to a glowing screen, the eyes begin to experience unnatural strain due to the constant flickering of the monitor. This is where discomfort and pain arise.

    It has also been scientifically proven that a person who concentrates his attention on the screen begins to blink much less often than usual, and this negatively affects the condition of the cornea. It dries out, hence the burning sensation, the sensation of grains of sand in the eye and impaired tear production.

    Well, that’s not all – any monitor emits radiation that is invisible to the eye, but very harmful. These are not only electromagnetic waves emanating from every electronic device, but also rays of the blue and violet spectrum. They create additional stress on the visual apparatus.


    Eye irritation when working at a computer

    This all sounds, of course, very disappointing, but do not rush to panic. Doctors have developed a whole system to protect vision from the negative effects of the computer, and anyone can use it. First of all, doctors advise purchasing special glasses that will protect your eyes from the computer. In addition, it is important to adhere to a certain operating mode behind the glowing screen, but we will talk about this later in the article, and now we will dwell in more detail on the glasses.

    How to choose glasses for a computer?

    Observations by ophthalmologists indicate that with high intellectual load or weakened general health, fatigue comes faster. Three factors have been identified that form this effect even in healthy people. Take this into account to choose the right glasses for your computer:

    • the blue glow of the screen, which is blocked by a lens with a so-called blue blocker;
    • glare, which must be compensated by an anti-reflective lens system;
    • Peculiarities of perception of contrast when illuminated are smoothed out using a metallized coating on glasses.

    About how to choose an accessory for working with a monitor, ask an ophthalmologist at the optician where you are going to make a purchase. Your vision will be checked and simple protective lenses or prescription lenses will be recommended.

    Pros and cons of computer glasses

    Any safety glasses for working at a computer must be used periodically and combined with other methods of vision protection: gymnastics, technical breaks, rapid blinking, drops. When used correctly, the benefits of computer glasses are obvious:

    • They neutralize the harmful effects of rays;
    • Improve the quality of the visible image;
    • Makes reading and drawing easier;
    • Reduce fatigue by redistributing the focal load.

    Attention! Constantly wearing protection weakens visual function!

    When do you need glasses for working on a computer: recommendations from experts

    Technical progress does not stand still; innovative technology occupies not the least place in human life. It helps to perform many operations and is indispensable in certain areas of activity. Work requires a person to spend a long time looking at a glowing screen.

    To preserve your vision, you should use glasses when working on a computer. Remember, we receive most of the information about the world around us through our eyes. Therefore, it is important to monitor their health. Take breaks from work, wear protection, and perform special exercises.

    Despite a lot of information, when purchasing protective optics for working on a PC, it is better to use the recommendations of a specialist. An ophthalmologist will advise which type of protection is right for you.

    In what cases is it harmful to wear computer glasses?

    The following topics are often published on forums: “Computer glasses: benefit or harm.” When selected correctly, these ophthalmic products do not have a negative impact on eye health. However, it should be borne in mind that they block part of the light spectrum, so they do not have 100% light transmission. Due to this, the colors on the screen may be slightly distorted, but these distortions are not significant. Computer glasses are available with and without diopters. The first ones are designed for people with refractive errors - myopia, farsightedness, etc. Before purchasing these products, you must be examined by an ophthalmologist. The wrong choice of optics can not only cause discomfort, but also impair vision.

    Safety glasses for working at a computer: benefits, reviews from ophthalmologists, selection rules
    The ease of use of computer glasses is directly influenced by the quality of their lenses and frames. Poorly manufactured optical products often cause discomfort during operation.

    Possible problems when using such glasses:

    • Slight color distortion;
    • Unpleasant sensations and deterioration of vision due to incorrect selection of glasses with diopters;
    • The appearance of discomfort when wearing optical products with low-quality lenses or frames.

    Harm from computer glasses

    Glasses can only cause harm if they are made of low-quality materials or if they are worn constantly without breaks.

    We recommend reading: Nutrition for acute gastritis: diet and menu

    The harmful effect is deterioration of vision. If this symptom appears, you must contact an ophthalmologist, who will select therapy and describe the visual regime.

    Attention! All protective computer glasses have harmful properties, so it is important to be careful when purchasing and using them.

    Does it make sense to buy glasses for a computer?

    If you want to protect your eyes when working at a computer, you should approach this issue comprehensively. Buying glasses will not be enough in this case. They will not protect your eyes from dryness, fatigue and other unpleasant symptoms associated with infrequent blinking and prolonged focusing on one object. They will also not help if there is insufficient lighting in the room or if the monitor is too close to your eyes.

    Safety glasses for working at a computer: benefits, reviews from ophthalmologists, selection rules
    These optical products will cope with their main function - protection from glare, rays of excessive violet and blue spectrum - but this is not enough. To maintain visual health, you need not only to wear special safety glasses, but also to follow the rules of working at the computer.

    Prevention of eye fatigue when working at a computer for a long time:

    • If possible, take a break and do eye exercises every 45 minutes;
    • Set comfortable parameters for brightness, contrast and screen refresh rate;
    • Make sure that the display is positioned clearly at the same level as your eyes;
    • Make sure that the workplace is comfortable (sufficient level of natural light, comfortable furniture, etc.);
    • Place the monitor at a distance of at least 50-60 cm from your eyes. If you have difficulty reading the text, increase the font size or use
    • means of correction;
    • Use special glasses to protect your eyes when working with a PC.

    Do computer glasses help protect your eyes?

    Understanding whether computer glasses are really useful for eye protection is not easy.

    What are the benefits of anti-glare glasses for a computer?

    For people who have to look at a screen for a long time, glasses are useful and even necessary. Without a filter, your eyes will quickly get tired. In addition, eye fatigue provokes:

    • the occurrence of headaches;
    • irritability;
    • decreased performance.

    High-quality lenses have the property of absorbing blue radiation and benefit focusing, thanks to which a person better perceives the image on the screen. Anti-glare properties smooth out light reflections and do not irritate the eyes.

    But for eye comfort, computer glasses alone are not enough. Damage to vision will still occur. It is necessary to perform simple useful exercises to train the eye muscles, observe the rules of hygiene at the computer (the eyes should be at least 50 cm away from the monitor, the back should be kept straight, the chair should correspond to the person’s height). Eye drops that reduce tension, reduce flicker damage, or moisturize the cornea can be a helpful remedy.

    Recommended reading: Benefits of back massage, techniques for doing it at home

    But every person who uses glasses of this kind should keep in mind that wearing the accessory without breaks for rest, exercise, etc. will not benefit your vision. This regime, rather, has negative properties.

    It leads to decreased visual function. This is due to the fact that the lenses significantly soften the payload on the eyes, make focusing easier, and the eye becomes slightly unaccustomed to normal loads. If there is any benefit, it is minimal; more often than not, only harm is caused.
