    There are different reports and studies that seem to contradict   
    each other in part. Here are two quotes from the World Wide Web:   
      
   |Constant exposure to blue light from phones and computers is   
   |very harmful to people. Researchers from Oregon State   
   |University say the damaging effects of daily, lifelong   
   |exposure to blue light worsen as a person ages.   
      
   |Blue-light filtering glasses may not be as effective as   
   |marketed, according to new research. These glasses, designed   
   |to filter out blue light, seem to have no significant impact   
   |when it comes to preventing eye strain or improving sleep   
   |quality after using computers.   
      
    . Personally, I reckon advertising folks are sweet on   
    that blue-tinted white because it comes off as "clean."   
    That's probably why it's the default setting on devices.   
    But thankfully, there are ways to tweak your settings or   
    grab some software to dial back the blue.
