Stuck working under bright light late at night? Amber blue-blocker glasses for the last ninety minutes before bed.

Wear amber-tinted glasses that block 470–500 nm wavelengths during the last 90 minutes before bed if room lighting cannot be dimmed (e.g. when working late). Cheaper and less disruptive than rewiring every light.

Evidence: medium preserved evening melatonin easier sleep onset

Full transcript

Stuck working under bright light late at night? Amber blue-blocker glasses for the last ninety minutes before bed. They cut the wavelengths that suppress melatonin, so your brain still gets the signal that it's night — even when you can't dim the room. Cheaper and easier than rewiring every light in the house.
