Screens and blue light

BeaE

Does anyone have any advice to stop getting sore eyes/headaches from screens and their blue light? 

I recently had my eyes checked, and all is fine, so I think I'm just using screens too much (which is unavoidable) and am also generally not great with light.

I've been wearing blue light glasses for a couple of years, which have really helped. However, recently I have been finding it  irritating to have the glasses touching my face. So, I've been choosing not to wear them, and my eyes are not happy about it!

I don't know if there's maybe a blue light screen cover I could try instead - has anyone tried one of these? Or any other alternatives?

    I love dark mode, it makes screens very much easier for me to use. I read a research paper a few years ago about clarity of print to help visually impaired people and it concluded that in its study group yellow on black was the clearest. Dark mode as white on black has very similar optical properties and so improves readability then consequently reduces eye strain
