AOC is rolling out an innovative and patent-pending, solution called
Anti-Blue Light technology to protect users against the damaging effects
of blue light from LED-backlit computer screens.
Like Ultra-Violet light waves (UV) from the sun, extended overexposure to shortwave blue light (380-450 nm) from LED-backlit devices can be a contributor to vision impairments.
The
new technology, Anti-Blue-Light (ABL), enables users to enjoy a quality
picture, brightness and color fidelity without subjecting their eyes to
the prolonged detrimental impact of shortwave blue light exposure. The
technology will be incorporated into new AOC 76V Series Anti-Blue Light
displays announced this year.
The AOC patent-pending Anti-Blue Light technology reduces the intensity and strength of shortwave blue light by fine tuning the LED backlight to reduce eye-damaging shortwave blue light by over 90 percent. Unlike other solutions that use filters or software settings, AOC Anti-Blue Light technology reduces shortwave blue light without dimming or distorting colors to maintain the true color and clarity of your images.
Studies show that long-term, chronic exposure to blue light may lead to macular degeneration (AMD), a permanent loss of vision in the center of the eye due to damage to the retina.
As more people spend time in front of their screens, Dr. Carl Kupfer, former Director of the US National Eye Institute, National Institutes of Health, predicts, “The prevalence of AMD is expected to rise 6.3 million by the year 2030.” Dr. Kupfer also indicates that “macular degeneration will soon take on aspects of an epidemic.”
“AOC’s Anti-Blue Light technology leads the industry in protecting consumers against the damaging effects of blue light and providing a safer and healthier workplace.”
Rather than filtering the blue light out, the Anti-Blue Light technology works by actually tweaking the blue light emissions of the display at the source, which makes it possible to reduce the detrimental impacts without compromising color quality or brightness.
This is achieved by a new LED technology that shifts the wavelength peak of the LED backlight from 450 nm to 460 nm, moving it out of the range which is considered harmful.
