Blueligut glasses should only be used past 7pm or else it will mess up your circadian rhythm

Was listening to an andrew huberman podcast about sleeo and he said that blue light is one thing that inhibits some sleep hormone (melatonin?). Youd ideally want it in the morning and afternoon but want to limit blue light and general light intake later in the day to optimize your sleep hormone profile leading to a good nights rest

Reduce screen time, vitamin D, spend time in sun, and blink more often, also lubricating eye drops.

i do all those things besides the eyedrops, could caffeine potentially dry my eyes in some sort of way? (might be a stupid question)

Youre supposed to wear them close to bedtime. Youre not supposed to wear them all throughout the day

I avoid caffeine completely. It just fucks with your dopamine and energy levels. I rely on good sleep, being hydrated, and food to keep me energized. I dont think caffeine would directly lead to dry eyes. However, it makes you more focused, which means you would inherently blink less which could lead to drier eyes esp if youre prone to it

Caffine can cause dehydration. Might also be ruining your sleep witch is the most important thing.

Than caffeine isn't a problem. How's your sleep schedule?
I have a condition where my eyes don't produce enough tears, try using a hydrating eye drop.

I think regular sun glasses are way better then blue light tbh,with regular sun glasses they just dim lights but when I tried blue light they didn’t dim any lights everything still feels just as bright so common sense leads me to think to protect eyes sun glasses is better
