Smartphones, com- puters and laptops, tablets and TV draw our eyes at all hours. In fact, the Vision Council of America has reported that 60 percent of adults are staring intently at screens for more than six hours a day! What Is the Risk? Staring at screens for a long time is a well-known cause of dry eyes, bad pos- ture and eye fatigue while maintaining focus, but it seems that the blue light emitted by screen backlights itself causes extra strain due to the specific wave- lengths involved (400-500nm, with 450nm being particularly harmful). There are even emerging thoughts that it could contribute to age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Adlens ® Can Help Adlens Interface is unique computer eye- wear specifically designed as the perfect tool to counteract these dangers. Lightweight frames with adjustable focus, blue-light filtering lenses combine to combat eye strain and discomfort dur- ing screen use. The adjustable focus lenses offer correction of -6D to +3D, giving clear detail from 30cm to the horizon – perfect for adjusting to whichever screen you are viewing. This helps battle the common strain associated with focusing at one dis- tance for an extended period of time, and in turn will assist with good posture – no more hunching over to squint at the screen! All you need to do is turn the small dials on the corners of the frame until you can see clearly. The specially for- mulated tint in the lenses also blocks an astonishing 80 percent of the most harmful wavelength of blue light, minimising the risk of digital eye strain. Take action to protect your eyes today, and try Adlens Interface for yourself. Top Tips for Fighting Digital Eye Strain Apply the 20-20-20 rule whenever you need to spend a while in front of a screen. Every 20 minutes, take 20 seconds to focus on something 20 feet away, and give your eye muscles a break. For computers, especially at work, make sure you sit with good posture and arrange your screen so you can see and work effectively when sitting with a straight back and an arm's length from the screen. Wear eyewear designed to enhance your eye's focusing ability and filter harmful blue light to battle eye strain on both fronts. Adlens Interface is perfect for the task, as you can adjust the focus- ing power for screens of any size or dis- tance and filter blue light at the same time. Adlens Interface is available online and in stores worldwide. Visit Adlens at booth #74650 or go to www.adlens.com to find out more.
