FAQ Highlights
Q: What is blue light and how does it compare to other colors?
A: Blue light is a type of electromagnetic radiation with a wavelength of around 450-495 nanometers. It is on the same hinge as UV light, which can have negative health effects, but is not as dangerous. The longer the wavelength, the less health effects it has on the eye, with red and green light having fewer effects than blue and violet light.
Q: How does the human eye work to detect different colors?
A: The human eye works by allowing light to pass through the cornea, pupil, and lens, and then hitting the retina, which contains photoreceptors that convert light into electrical signals that are sent to the brain. The photoreceptors in the retina are responsible for detecting different colors and allowing us to see.
