Iris Pro is a computer eye protection software designed for office users. Staying at the computer for a long time often leads to eye fatigue, which can lead to decreased vision over time. This Iris Pro can help us automatically adjust the brightness of the screen, which is very helpful for protecting our eyes.
When you sit in front of a computer, Iris acts as an aid to your eyes. It removes blue light from the screen at night and can control screen brightness without the need for PWM (Pulse Width Modulation), helping you get better sleep and reducing eye fatigue.
The Iris project began in 2015 and is now used in over 180 countries, with over 1 million users using Iris. This number is increasing due to its simple and easy-to-use graphical interface, as well as many preset modes such as health, sleep, reading, programming, biohacking, sunglasses, darkness, movies, and screen overlays. Freedom, intelligence, and power. You can start a new life with just one click. are you ready?
The impact of blue light on health
Blue light is a part of the visible spectrum that can reach deeper parts of the eye, and its cumulative effects may lead to retinal damage and be associated with the development of age-related macular degeneration.
There are various sources of blue light in daily life, including LED lighting, tablets, televisions, computer screens, and smartphones. These electronic devices will expose us excessively to blue light.
The best way to reduce blue light intake is to avoid using electronic devices, which is almost impossible for many people. Another way is to use anti blue glasses (tangerine), which means that everything you see will become tangerine.
This is the meaning of Iris' existence. It allows you to customize your screen color temperature and the amount of blue light your eyes receive. Iris hooks with graphics pipes, allowing you to reduce blue light on the display backlight. For us, this is the best solution because it is highly customizable. You can make minor adjustments or significantly reduce blue light.
Iris can also automatically adjust the screen temperature based on the time of day. Warm colors during the day and warm colors at night.
Inspiration from the 2017 Nobel Prize
We just got the news recently that the 2017 Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine was awarded to three scientists for their discovery of the molecular mechanism of circadian rhythm control.
The human body is regulated by circadian rhythm. A healthy life operates regularly. If you can wake up naturally at 6:00 every day, you won't need an alarm to wake up at that moment, which is commonly referred to as the biological clock.
Research shows that melatonin can affect people's circadian rhythm, thus affecting sleep quality. Exposure to blue light a few hours before bedtime can inhibit the secretion of melatonin and seriously delay deep REM sleep. People who often work overtime in front of their computers and those who frequently play with their phones often feel dry and painful eyes, which is a very intuitive negative impact; Another less intuitive aspect is that the blue light emitted by computers and mobile phones can affect the secretion of melatonin, thereby affecting sleep quality.
A healthy body requires regular work and rest. Lu Yao, the winner of the Mao Dun Literature Prize who wrote "Ordinary World" and "Life", was only 42 years old when he died. He used to work at night and sleep during the day. The circadian rhythm was completely reversed, and finally died of cirrhosis. This tragedy suggests that we should let our bodies run in accordance with the circadian rhythm and play less with computers and mobile phones. If your job involves dealing with computers every day, be sure to take good care of your eyes. It not only affects eye health, but also affects sleep.
This is an important reason why we need Iris, as it is wiser to protect our eyes from the source than to buy eye drops or visit the ophthalmology department at the hospital.
