What is Anti-Glare or Radiation Filters for Computer Screens?

Anti-glare or radiation filters for computer screens, also known as screen protectors or glare shields, are specialized overlays designed to reduce glare, reflections, and harmful blue light emitted from digital displays. These filters improve screen visibility and comfort by minimizing eye strain and fatigue, especially during extended computer use. Ideal for individuals sensitive to light, those with visual impairments, or anyone working in brightly lit environments, these filters enhance focus and reduce headaches caused by screen glare. By softening harsh light and blocking radiation, they contribute to a healthier and more accessible workspace, supporting productivity and well-being.
