REMOTE WORK, SCREENS & SUN PROTECTION

TURNING YOUR REMOTE WORK INTO A SUCCESSFUL WORK-LIFE-STORY

 

In an increasingly digitalised world in which many people work in front of screens, working outdoors is becoming increasingly important. However, sunlight on screens can cause glare and eye strain. To overcome these challenges, sunglasses for screens have proven to be a promising solution. 

The world of work has changed dramatically in recent years. More and more people are working remotely or flexibly and using screens, whether for video conferencing, writing emails, creating presentations or capturing images and video content. This development has led to many employees having the opportunity to do their work outdoors. However, exposure to sunlight on screens can lead to problems including glare, eye strain and reduced productivity. One possible solution to this problem is sunglasses designed specifically for use in front of screens. We look at how best to work outdoors and what features are particularly important in sunglasses for screens.

It turns out that working outdoors is perfectly possible with suitable sunglasses. There are certain features to look out for when choosing sunglasses for screens:

 

1. BLUE LIGHT FILTER: 

Screens emit a high proportion of blue light, which can strain the eyes and impair sleep quality. Sunglasses with an integrated blue light filter can reduce these negative effects.

 

2. CONTRAST ENHANCEMENT:

Outdoor screens can sometimes have low contrast due to ambient light, which can lead to blurred vision. Sunglasses with contrast enhancing properties improve the clarity and sharpness of the image, making it easier to read text and recognize details.

 

3. TINT: 

Sunglasses for screens should have an appropriate tint. A tint that is too dark can impair the view of the screen and make it difficult to read or work with colors. A tint that is too light, on the other hand, may not provide sufficient protection against glare. A medium tint that offers sufficient protection against glare without impairing the view of the screen is therefore recommended.

Another important criterion when choosing sunglasses for outdoor work is wearing comfort. As employees often sit in front of a screen for hours on end, it is important that the sunglasses sit comfortably on the nose and do not cause any pressure points. 

Finally, UV protection should also be considered for sunglasses for screens. Outdoor exposure to the sun can have harmful effects on the eyes, especially in the long term. Sunglasses with a high level of UV protection protect the eyes from the sun's harmful UV rays and reduce the risk of eye damage.

 

CONCLUSION:

Working outdoors with screens requires special sunglasses that meet the requirements. Sunglasses with blue light filters, contrast-enhancing properties, appropriate tinting, wearing comfort and UV protection are recommended. By choosing appropriate sunglasses for screens, workers can reduce the negative effects of glare, eye strain and reduced productivity and create a comfortable outdoor working environment.
