If I use Night Mode on my phone, do I still need blue light filter glasses?

Why your screen's Night Mode is NOT enough....
Do you find yourself working late into the night? Maybe you’re replying to emails, watching Netflix, or scrolling social media before bed. Whatever your screen of choice — phone, laptop, tablet, or TV - there’s one thing they all have in common: blue light.
While modern life makes screen time hard to avoid, too much of it in the evening could be silently sabotaging your sleep.
What Is Blue Light - and Why Does It Affect Sleep?
Blue light is a high-energy, short-wavelength light that’s emitted by most digital screens. It’s also naturally present in sunlight — which is great during the day, because it helps keep us alert and focused.
But at night? That’s a different story.
Your body has an internal clock, known as the circadian rhythm. This system relies on natural light cues to regulate sleep and wake cycles. When you’re exposed to blue light at night, it tricks your brain into thinking it’s still daytime. This delays the release of melatonin, the hormone responsible for helping you fall and stay asleep.
Even just a few hours of evening screen time can shift your circadian rhythm, making it harder to wind down, fall asleep, and reach deep, restorative sleep.
"But My Phone Has Night Mode!" - Why That’s Not Enough
Enabling night mode or blue light filters on your phone is a great start, but unfortunately, it’s not a complete solution. Many built-in filters don’t block all blue light, especially the wavelengths most linked to melatonin suppression.
Plus, TVs and most laptops don’t automatically adjust. Even dimmed screens can still disrupt your body’s natural wind-down cues.
How Blue Light Filter Glasses Can Help
That’s where NaPture Blue Light Filter Glasses come in. Our sleep aid glasses are designed with specially coated lenses that filter out the most disruptive blue light wavelengths — without compromising screen clarity or colour.
Whether you’re:
- Working late on your laptop
- Watching your favourite show
- Scrolling before bed
- Or catching up on messages
…NaPture’s glasses help shield your eyes from the melatonin-blocking effects of blue light, giving your body the chance to relax and prepare for natural, high-quality sleep.
Better Sleep Starts with Better Habits
Using blue light filter glasses is one of the simplest, most effective ways to support your sleep naturally — especially if reducing screen time isn’t realistic.
Pair them with other calming bedtime rituals, like dim lighting, a consistent sleep schedule, and limiting caffeine in the evening, and you’re setting yourself up for real, sustainable rest.
Final Thought:
Screens may be part of life — but poor sleep doesn’t have to be. With a few simple tweaks, including the right tools like NaPture’s Blue Light Filter Glasses, you can protect your sleep and wake up feeling like yourself again.
