🎙Key points:

Do blue blocking glasses actually work, or are they just a fad? In this episode, Dr. Gan explores whether these trendy glasses truly enhance performance or if they're just a gimmick.

Blue light from screens disrupts sleep by affecting circadian rhythms. While blue-blocking glasses claim to help, research is inconclusive. Small sample sizes in studies make it hard to determine their actual effectiveness.

Dr. Gan shares his own experience wearing blue light glasses post-brain surgery, finding relief from bright lights. However, he suggests that a pre-sleep routine—disconnecting from screens and dimming your environment—may be more beneficial for most people.

Ultimately, it might come down to personal preference, with some users feeling subjective improvements. Whether you swear by them or think it's a placebo, the choice is yours
