Best eye doctor on youtube, that's for sure. Thanks for producing quality videos dude! I've been suffering from dry eye for a while and it's really affecting my life. Basically everytime I use the computer, it's just a matter of time until my eyes get red and then they sting a lot. Once I take my eyes away from the computer screen I'm fine! I've studied so long to become a successfull programmer, and now I can't even get a job because of my eyes :(
Oh wow. Sorry to hear that are having such a tough time. Have you seen an eye doc that specializes in dry eye or ocular surface disease? I'm sure there has to be something that could bring you some relief.
I have exactly the same dilemma after I had removed my dioptre with laser. I am sick of bad eyesight and I invest whole my life in being good in digital jobs, but now I am experiencing kind of phobia when I feel burning or stinging in my eyes just by doing some ordinary stuffs on my computer, so I really feel frustrated after I need to go out with this burning feeling in my eyes. I have often thoughts to do any job outside any computer because I want to keep my new good vision forever. Maybe this screen protector should be helping, this gives me a hope at least...
@@mrtoasticles7144 I still haven't tried, since I need to change my current computer monitor, so screen protector need to fit by its size... We will see, I hope...
@DoctorEyeHealth What are some best alternatives for protecting our eyes from blue light (directly using screen guard , software that changes preferences to lower eye strain or using glasses with blue light protection) and is there any side effect in any of these.
Hey ipad user do you know why there isn't any blue light filter app, specially that let's you to change color of your screen, cause default warm setting is not enough for me🙄
Hi Doctor-so is it glasses OR Ocushield??? I work online and my eyes are killing me. I already wear protective glasses. if I’d ALSO buy Ocushield, would that be redundant protection, OR would glasses PLUS Ocushield offer twice the protection? ❤︎
I was wondering if it would be okay for minus glass lenses to be combined with an anti-blue light lens, in case you have a guess - what kind of lenses would it be?
Do you have a recommendation for a PC removable blue screen filter? I don’t want to put one time use ones on my employer’s computers. I’d like to be able to transfer them to new monitors every couple of months.
I have an astigmatism an cant use a red dot sight when shooting i am a soldier and see star burst or comma like images instead of a crisp clear red dot sight i was told a toric contact lens would help the one my doctor gave me made it worse is there a special lens that will help
Hello i have a question i just got my new pair of glasses done and my new pair of glasses aren't multicoated they're just normal lenses not like my old glasses that are multicoated since my new pair of glasses are just "normal" lenses can i go to some optical shops to make them multicoated or does my normal lenses needed to be replaced with the multicoated ones? because i find that i need multicoated lenses because my eyes are always exposed to phones,computers and etc.
I am using gunnars glasses, but I am thinking to buy ocushield as well. thanks for the code, doc =) Also, great fan of your work to educate people. Learnt alot through your videos. ✌️😁
Can you do a video on pigment on the sclera of the eye? I have a brown yellowish spot on the white of my left eye near my iris and it developed when I was younger. It’s always bothered me and my eye doctor said its normal since it’s just extra melanin and posses no risk, but I heard that you can get it removed for cosmetic reasons? Do you think that’s a harmless idea or risky?
That would be a great subject to cover, I can try and schedule a whole series on eye spots and such. From your description is does sound like your doctor diagnosed you with some type of racial melanosis. Not too sure about the removal of it though. I suppose there is a procedure for everything. I will look into it a bit more and see if I can make a video on the subject.
Doctor Eye Health The name for the removal procedure is called pterygectomy and flap or pterygium surgery. I’ve seen quite a few videos of people getting this done. Hopefully it’s safe! Thank you!
Thank you doctor. I work at a call centre and I get really dry eyes and get headaches staring at the computer screen all day. I'm assuming this is due to blue light coming off the screens. I also think the new phones that have OLED panels let off a lot of this light
Blue light may have some connection with eye fatigue, although a lot of eye strain on the computer is caused by stress on the focusing system and poor blink rate.
I was watching your Myopia (nearsightedness) video and i'm 15 years old and i'm studying i have issues reading the board just like doctor Roman said. My condition is very very similar and i'm confused on what to do any guidance would be really appreciated! there is one weird thing that i'm concerned about. i can see very clearly even faraway when i close my eyes halfway but when i completely open them it gets blurry but i can still see clearly near me
Thanks Dave! I have never been to the philippines but I hope to some day. I hear its nice. Have you seen any of my other videos on blue light protection? There are a couple of ways to protect yourself.
Can I make a makeshift blue light screen protufor glasses? Like I can cut out the shape of my eye glass parts and stick them on lol I wonder if that'll work? Or blue light blocking only comes in glass form?
That wasn’t a review though, that was a plug. It was more “here’s this one brand that I know I like and here are the good features” as opposed to an objective review of a product you aren’t familiar with or an objective review comparing it to other, similar products. Leaves me with a bunch of questions about the product. Like, do the computer screens come in a non-privacy version? Why does the phone screen protector have a purple sheen? Among others... Also, there are companies that make blue light filtering lenses that don’t have a yellow hue to them and there are some companies that offer the blue light filter as a feature for Rx lenses, that’s probably worth mentioning. C’mon, doc. You can do better.
Thanks for the input. Its good to hear that type of feedback. I will be sure to try and see what I can do for future videos. More or less I found out about the screen protector and thought it was a good option for an alternative to blue light glasses and thought people would like to know about it. To answer your questions though, I think all computer filters have a privacy filter built in, not 100% sure about it. The purple sheen is likely a type of anti-reflective. But honestly I am not 100% sure how they actually make the protectors. Again, thank you for your input.
I agree I’m looking to find the best screen protector to protect the iPad itself as well as my eyes… And I’m having problems deciding what’s best… I’m sure this one’s good for your eyes but is it as protective for my device? Anyone get any answers on this yet?
I do just use the setting on my phone (Google Pixel) that changes it after a specific time that I set....the yellowish tint doesn't bother me, BUT I have been looking to get something for my desktop monitors since I'm on my computer a lot before bed. Windows actually has a similar feature that phones do for evening light settings, but while I don't mind it on my phone, I don't really want it on my monitors. Thanks for the link, hadn't heard about these before!
Yeah this was just a cool product that I thought I would share with people. I know a lot of people either dont like glasses or are not a fan of the yellowing that comes with a lot of blue light glasses and aps.
how do we know if a screen protector is really anti-blue light? Before watching this video, I had already bought a different one in amazon for my iphone and saw that it came from China. I don't trust this. Is there a way we can tell whether a screen protector is anit-blue light or not?
I am awful!! I’m not using anything currently. I do have F.lux for my laptop but I’m the kind of person that can’t stand it when the screen doesn’t seem bright enough or blue enough. Thanks for the recommendations! I’ll have to try this out!
I have a built in blue light filter in my reading glasses and distance glasses and nightshift on my iphone and I’m gonna get this screen protector for my iphone.
I have the ocusheild clip on blue light lenses, and they broke where the studs go through the lens, YAY! no I can't get them fixed because they are from England
They have lots of info on their website. They also make some other cool products, such as a desk lamp that doesn't put out so much blue light. I like the fact the protectors dont change the color of the screen.
I'd love to get one for my android but that only have them for samsung & iphones....I have a motorola :(...not to mention it's still kinda pricey for me.
hello doctor! hope you're doing well ^^ I've been following your channel and watching your videos since so long because I also have problems in my eyes (macula problems). doctors in my country told me there's no solution and I'm scared to lose my vision with time especially that i'm about to choose my path in my engineering studies
These Anti-bluelight screen protectors prevent you for getting accurate color reproduction on your screen. These are horrible if you're a photographer or graphic designer.
man why not cut the advertising crap and go straight to the point? do you know how many people are busy with their lifes? Sorry for being rude but for real sometimes.... it's soo annoying. if you want to improve your videos this is something to consider.
Question of the DAY~ Are you using blue light protection? Are you using blue light filters for your devices or blue light glasses?
In the past, I had some smartphones whose screens were too harsh on my eyes... I used to apply some blue filters available in the Google PlayStore (Android).

I download blue light filter from play store and sat color to yellow, so does it prevent blue light
Trying to find best eye protection as I am recuperating from concussion. Thanks for this!
When its a national concern why does this not come mandatorily with devices. What r authorities doing ?
(I would hope) giving people the freedom to choose to do what they wish with their own bodies (yes, and eyes)

Windows 10 has the bluelight filter baked into the OS. It's called "Nightlight". There's instructions online on how to activate it.
It does not work for people who have hdr
@@sarahhavillamelooliveira5825 big f
his blue eyes damage my eyes just now
This guy is pure rizz
I had no idea these were a thing! So awesome. I use glasses from time to time, but I try to reduce screen exposure especially in the evening.
I think reducing computer time is always the best idea..but obviously very hard to do these days.
If I have blue light filter for PC is it useless to have blue light glasses as well?
My glasses have UV protection and I just ordered the blue light filter for my iPhone. Thank you!
Nice! I hope you love it! Works pretty well on my phone.

Any suggestions about blue light protection for androids? I have found only 2 but they are for Samsung S22 and S23
Getting some right now for my brother who's never wore glasses. Figure it's a safer bet than having him try the glasses
I need the protector which is according to the size of my screen. How can i customize it?
I'm currently not doing anything since I was really unaware of Blue Light. Apparently, I'll be placing and order !! Thanks !!
Thats cool Paul! Yeah Blue light is still a newer focus in eyecare. But is getting bigger now since media attention is shifting toward it.
@DoctorEyeHealth What are some best alternatives for protecting our eyes from blue light (directly using screen guard , software that changes preferences to lower eye strain or using glasses with blue light protection) and is there any side effect in any of these.
And is there anyway that you know of to prevent more floaters from appearing?
Quick question, which filter would you recommend for someone who is recovering from a concussion? (Macbook pro)

Does this anti blue light screen protector cause inaccuracy of the color project on your iPhone?
Only when youre outside and the sunlight hits your screen directly.
night mode interface solves the problem?
