Blue Light Glasses

Blue light, emitted by screens (phones, computers, televisions), can disrupt the brain, particularly by affecting sleep. It inhibits the production of melatonin, the hormone that regulates our sleep cycle, which can lead to difficulty falling asleep, insomnia and a decrease in the quality of sleep. In the long term, this can cause mental fatigue, concentration problems and migraines.

To mitigate these effects, anti-blue light glasses are an effective solution. Equipped with filter lenses, they block harmful rays, reduce visual fatigue and improve comfort in front of screens. They also help to better regulate the circadian rhythm, thus improving the quality of sleep. Wearing anti-blue light glasses is therefore essential to protect both the eyes and the brain from prolonged exposure to screens.

Anti-blue light glasses are becoming increasingly popular to protect the eyes from the harmful effects of screens. However, the question of their reimbursement remains complex. In general, if anti-blue light glasses are without correction (without prescription), they are not reimbursed by Social Security or mutual insurance companies in France. They are considered non-medical accessories.

On the other hand, if you have a visual correction and you opt for corrective lenses with a blue light filter, it is possible that part of it will be covered as part of the reimbursement of classic glasses. The amount will depend on your mutual insurance contract. It is therefore recommended to check with your health insurance to find out if coverage is provided for this type of lenses.

Anti-blue light glasses are particularly effective for working on a computer. By filtering the harmful rays emitted by screens, these glasses reduce visual fatigue, a common problem among people who spend long hours in front of a screen. They help limit symptoms such as dry eyes, migraines and itchy eyes.

In addition, they help improve visual comfort by reducing the effect of blue light on the retina, which can also reduce headaches. Another notable benefit is that they help maintain a regular sleep pattern, by reducing the impact of blue light on melatonin production.

In summary, anti-blue light glasses are an excellent choice to improve productivity and comfort when working on a computer, while protecting eye health.
