It might be，mainly because as we stare at our devices we are exposing ourselves to blue light.Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a very short wavelength that produces a high amount of energy.While its true that light can damage our eyes under certain circumstances，theres no scientific evidence suggesting that blue light is harmful to our eyes.But many people still think it is，which is why blue lightblocking glasses are so popular.So do the glasses work?“Everyone is very concerned that blue light may be causing damage to the eye，but theres no evidence that it may be causing serious damage，”Dr.Rahul Khurana，clinical spokesman for the American Academy of Ophthalmologists，told Business Insider.Blue light exposure is nothing new.In fact，the sun is the largest source of blue light.Moreover，blue light is also present in LED light.But if blue light isnt harmful，then why are we constantly rubbing our eyes when were looking at our screens? The answer is eyestrain(眼疲劳):More than 60 percent of people experience eye problems associated with digital eyestrain.And blue light，it seems，isnt the cause.Instead，our eyes are so strained because most of us blink less when we stare at our digital devices.So if eyestrain is the real issue，blue light-blocking glasses are probably of little use.1、What do we know about blue light?AIt is a kind of nuclear radiation.BIt has the shortest wavelength.CIt may come from electronic devices.DIt consumes a great deal of energy.
