Blue light can mess with your circadian rhythm and aggravate light sensitivity, even in migraine patients who are blind. If you haven’t already, try and get hold of a screen filter that you can put on your computer screen which will block the blue wavelengths. There are things you can do to limit the effect which all this extra screen time is having on you and your migraines though. But what can you do? Most work that people are doing is now via a computer screen, and unless you want to become completely cut off from the outside world, chances are you’re going to be spending some time on Zoom staying in contact with friends and family. Too much screen time can strain your eyes, raise your stress levels, but most importantly, help to trigger a migraine attack. In the current situation with people being advised to work from home where possible and socialising mainly taking place via the likes of Zoom, time away from the screen is getting less and less – which is a problem if you suffer from migraines.
