How Мonitors Destroyed our Eyes?

Monitors are like the Sun. They emit all colors of the rainbow but as it’s probably not so normal to look at the Sun at night. But unlike the Sun, monitors don’t emit full spectrum sunlight.

The sun also emits UV rays, but direct UV rays to our eyes aren't great either, and UV rays stop at the front of our retinas, and blue-violet light gets deep into our retinas, potentially causing macular degeneration in the long run.

Monitors are like a light bulb. But instead of one light bulb, we have millions of them in the size of several inches. In order to reduce their energy use and brightness, you need to turn them ON and OFF hundred of times per second. Our brain is slow and we do not perceive this, but our eyes are fast and our iris starts to open and close like this. The science behind this thing is that in dark we need more light and our pupil is dilated. When there is a lot of light around us or there is lots of daylight our pupil is undilated.

LED lights will use a lot of energy if they are constantly ON and they may also overheat. Same goes for other monitor types. The problem is that the lower the frequency of this flicker the bigger is our iris contractions and the more we feel eye pain.

Iris Pro is an efficient software for eye protection, blocking harmful blue light, reducing PWM, and maintaining your health. And it is software that can reduce the brightness of all monitors without PWM and without changing the backlight flicker-frequency or the current through the backlight. It does this by using the video card to move the white point of the monitor. This gives you a really big brightness reduction range.

By default Iris works automatically and detects if it’s day or night. Based on that it will change your screen Color Temperature and Brightness. When you open the control panel of the program you can select different modes and types of Iris.

Some of the benefits of Iris over competitors are that Iris works even on docking stations and monitors connected with USB with the help of my custom High level Color-API. It has a much larger blue light reduction color range compared to all other alternatives, brightness without pulse-width modulation, manual settings, color effects, font rendering, magnification and partial screen blue light reduction with the help of full-screen overlays.
