The hobbies and leisure activities of children and young people have changed significantly in recent decades.
In the school world and student life, learning is gained for several hours every day from laptops, tablets and digital screens in classrooms under LED lighting. Games and play have increasingly moved to digital devices. The entertaining content provided by digital screens has reduced children's activities in the fresh air year by year. Although we want to encourage children and young people to engage in creative hobbies, sports and outdoor activities every day, we also want to accept that the world has changed. The digital world is also full of incredible opportunities for future generations!
However, the developing, sensitive and precious eyes of children and young people in particular need preventive care against the harms of the digital world. The eyes of people under 25 are still developing and are many times more susceptible to eye disorders and adverse effects than the eyes of adults. It is said that the high-energy, short-wave blue light from digital devices penetrates the retina of children's eyes 45% more easily than that of adults. In addition, children often hold digital devices closer to their faces, which may expose them to up to four times the amount of blue light.
There is already a lot of interesting material and research on the harms of blue light. More research is needed on the subject, but it has already been shown that blue light can cause permanent and irreversible harm to children's eyes in the worst case.
Possible harmful effects of digital devices and blue light on children:
- Myopia. The more time a child spends in front of screens (without protecting their eyes), the greater the risk of vision impairment.
- Digital eye strain. Symptoms of digital eye strain include headaches, eye symptoms, blurred vision, and difficulty concentrating.
- Decreased performance in tasks that require attention. Eyes may become fatigued from blue light and prolonged screen time, impairing accuracy in performing tasks.
- Weakening of social skills. Excessive screen time reduces everyday and active interaction situations, which can lead to poor development of empathy, listening and communication skills.
- Development of sleep disorders. Blue light disrupts children's natural melatonin production, causing difficulty falling asleep, poor quality sleep, and too light and short nights of sleep. The adverse effects of poor sleep are undoubtedly visible in the next day's performance, ability to concentrate, and overall well-being.
- Permanent eye damage. Blue light is known to cause macular degeneration, cataracts, and retinal cell death.
