Description

We measured blue light energy emitted from sun and artificial lamp in house with light sensor we exclusively made for the purpose of the present study. Photo-toxicity of blue light emitted from 405 nm laser probe was tested using cultured corneal and conjunctival epithelium. Finally, sleep quality, sleepiness, and melatonin secretion were examined under control of blue light energy to the eye at night. The present results demonstrated the amount of blue light in our living environment, ocular surface toxicity of visible light, and significant level of lighting to affect sleep.
