Reading

I read using my tablet with the print enlarged has anyone been told by their doctor that the light from these devices is bad for your macular degeneration.

  1. my doctor hasn’t mentioned it but I have read the light may be harmful. Some wear blue blocking glasses. It’s the only option for me to read. Thanks for sharing, Sharon Moore patient leader

    1. good question! My docor hasn't said anything, but I've read plenty on the topic. I use whatever blue light filters are available on my devices, but I personally think I could do more. I don't have blue light filtering reading glasses, and I will look into getting some. Wendy, Patient Leader.
