7 smart buys that protect your eyes from harmful blue light - from computer glasses to screen protectors

Many light bulbs emit a crisp, cool form of light due to the blue light wavelength. Lighting Science uses a soft, warm light that emits more of a soothing glow instead. It's still strong enough to light the entire room, but it illuminates with 95% less blue light than your average light bulb.

The Lighting Science Goodnight Sleep Bulb only needs to be used in the room that you spend the last 90 minutes before bed in. The lack of blue light allows your body to naturally produce melatonin so can you fall asleep faster and easier. These light bulbs have an average lifespan of 22.8 years.

An Amazon user who gave this product a 4 out of 5 stars says, "I was skeptical that this would work but now I am a believer. The soft light allows me to read and then fall asleep quickly, sometimes forgetting to turn light off!"

Zagg has created a multi-purpose screen protector that not only protects your device, but protects your eyes from harmful blue light. Made with industry-leading impact technology, the screen now protects your device from drops and scratches.

Most importantly, the Zagg invisible shield filters out the blue light before it even leaves the screen to travel toward your eyes. As a plus, this technology doesn't effect the clarity or true color of images on your screen.

Previously reviewed by Insider Picks reporter Mara Leighton, these Eyekepper glasses are perfect for someone who doesn't require prescription glasses. Totaling a whopping $10, Eyekepper uses a slightly tinted lens to reflect about half of the blue light that's entering your eye. Additionally, these lenses offer 100% UV protection.

The frames are built to fit most medium-to-wide heads and come in 10 color patterns for both men and woman. If you feel like you might need a slight strength prescription, you can opt to add that feature at no additional cost to you.

Felix Gray is a pioneer in blue-light-filtering lenses. For a while you could not add the filtering feature to your prescription lenses, but as of recent, Felix Gray made that combination possible and Insider Picks has tested several styles in the past.

These glasses filter through blue light to eliminate the harsh glare that strains our eyes on the daily. Felix Gray developed lenses that won't distort the colors you see, yet the lenses still have a transparent look.

If you're someone who doesn't normally wear glasses and don't wish to wear glasses, you can opt to use a protective screen on your wide-screen laptop or computer. The Adaptix filter can be attached to your monitor's screen using 3M adhesive strips. Not only is this protective screen a privacy shield, but it also blocks up to 96% of blue light and UV radiation emitted.

Amazon users have attributed their increased productivity at work to the this product, saying, "I feel as if I'm able to work longer because of this filter and its ability to block out blue light. I no longer have to wear my amber-colored glasses that don't even work as well as the filter."

Another user says, "... You barley notice that it's there sometimes because the quality of the images displayed aren't diminished by the filter."

I can't be the only one who hates how tired fluorescent lights make me feel. Fluorescent lights create a harsh flicker that irritates many people's eyes. These two-foot by four-foot, heat-resistant shields help diminish the harsh glares of office and classroom lighting.

Attach the light shield to the light fixture with the sewn-in magnets at each corner. Amazon users have noted, "I've noticed that my eyes feel less tired at the end of the day ... If you can get past the jokes about your office looking like an aquarium, it's a great purchase."

Turn on night shift mode on your Apple devices, blue shade on your Kindles, the blue light filter on your Galaxy phones, and other nighttime modes on your smart devices.

Many popular electronic devices now have a blue-light-reducing feature that can be toggled on once the sun goes down. They work by switching your display from a cool, blue light to a warm, yellow light that's supposed to help signal to your brain that it's time for sleep.

These features are great options to helping protect your eyes from blue light, but many people don't use them during the day. That's why products, like the ones mentioned previously, are great options to reduce the amount of blue light your eyes are exposed to.
