Even though the research was conducted on mice, Tim Brown, who led the research said, “We think there is good reason to believe it’s also true in humans.” “We show the common view that blue light has the strongest effect on the clock is misguided in fact, the blue colours that are associated with twilight have a weaker effect than white or yellow light of equivalent brightness. The research was conducted on mice and discovered that the sleep pattern was impacted more when using bright Yellow colours as compared to Blue colours. It is because of this, that when the Night Mode is enabled and the yellow tint appears, it may send mixed signals to the body as the colours that appear on the screen resemble day more. “According to the team, using dim, cooler, lights in the evening and bright warmer lights in the day may be more beneficial to our health,” said the research. A new research conducted by scientists at University of Manchester has found that the Blue light filter used in the Night Mode is worse for your sleep as compared to the standard mode.
If you think using your smartphone in a Night Mode is good for your eyes, then you may want to think again.
