I never thought I felt eye strain from looking at big, bright screens all day I thought my young eyes were invincible. Then I started getting sharp headaches at the end of every day, and I realized I needed to change something.

Every color step is customizable, so you decide how red-shifted you’d like each phase to be I like mine on the deeper horizon agrotech end of the scale.
It’s normal horizon agrotech to see blue light during the day, but as it gets darker, that light is harsh on our eyes. Red light is easier on your eyes, especially at night it’s why red lights are used to preserve vision at night .
