Looking at screens in the evening, particularly in bed has been proven to disrupt circadian rhythms. But not because of the blue light, but because of psychology. The brain starts to associate night and bed with activity on a computer or phone rather than sleep. People who fall asleep watching TV or reading have similar issues. It's a matter of training your brain to sleep when you need to sleep. Put the phone down BEFORE you go to bed and you'll see that no matter how long you looked at it, once you start associating bed with SLEEP instead of facebook, you will sleep better in about a week or two.
You can buy monitors with blue light reduction, BenQ has some that have a setting for that. Gunnars are getting pretty trendy on the glasses end. There's also software available that turns your monitor yellow/pink to reduce the blues.

That "eat more iron" thing though is a new one for me. But keeping healthy levels of vitamins and minerals can't ever hurt.

Starmaker: This is a load of marketing shit. As long as you have plenty of iron in your blood, you won't go blind from mere screens.
Then I'm fucked.

Having less iron in your blood may take away one of the ways Magneto can kill you though (or at least make said way slightly more difficult), so that's one positive point for you.
Eyes? Where we're going we don't need eyes : )

True, but I'm not a prison guard, and if I was, I sure as hell wouldn't spend my time off hanging out at biker bars hitting on strange blonde women who in reality would never be caught dead looking that good in a place that scuzzy.
