My WINDOW to the world.
One of the most intricate part of the human system is the eye. Oh my precious eye what can i do without you. One may begin to wonder where this thought is leading, but to think of it, can we actually create posts or comments without the eye?, I don't think so.

As we strive daily through our robust schedules using our phone and laptop to interact in proofofbrain, have we also taken cautions to protect this ultimate member?, That takes me to the danger of blue ray lights emitted from phones and computers to the eye.

The team found that shining blue light on eye cells transforms vital molecules into a cell-killing poison that can lead to age-related macular degeneration, one of the biggest causes of blindness worldwide.
"We are being exposed to blue light continuously, and the eye's cornea and lens cannot block or reflect it."
How then can we deal with this menace
It is not enough treating defects but protecting and preventing it from damage is key. Just as the saying goes "prevention is better than cure".
"Protecting eyes from computer screens and smartphones is more important than ever, but effectively tackling the problem is more about prevention than treatment.
Digital Eye Strain (DES) is more common today than ever owing to the fact that virtually everybody uses a screen in daily life."
