Reddit mentions of DEWALT Laser Level Enhancement Glasses, Red (DW0714)

Flux is a good. If you go into the registry settings you can get your screen down below 1200K.

Best bet is to use blue blocking glasses. https://www.amazon.ca/Uvex-S1933X-Eyewear-SCT-Orange-Anti-Fog/dp/B000USRG90

Even better, blue/green blockers. https://www.amazon.ca/DEWALT-DW0714-Laser-Enhancement-Glasses/dp/B00093DJ4M

Thanks a lot!

Are we talking about these?

Yeah, I do think that one of the main problems may be in the fact that I use screens way too late, a little phone addiction..

Gods I wish I had just one friend like this lol

Cold Showers are so amazing I love it.

Since you haven't tried red glasses yet let me make a recommendation. Just buy these for at-home use: (also public if you don't care what others think)

Red will block more than orange or dark orange. This will be cheaper and more effective than many "premium" blue-blocking glasses.

Also for cast-iron be sure to check out carbon-steel!

When is he supposed to wake up in the morning? School start times are way too early for any sort of teenage mental health. What you're describing is severe sleep deprivation.

One way to shift his clock a little bit is by "darkness therapy" - i.e. isolating his eyes from all sources of blue light for about an hour before bedtime. Blue light blocks melatonin production in the brain, meaning that falling asleep will be near-impossible.

Give the kid a pair of blue-blocking goggles (like these: https://www.amazon.com/DEWALT-DW0714-Laser-Enhancement-Glasses/dp/B00093DJ4M/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1487657661&sr=8-2&keywords=red+laser+goggles ) and have him wear them for about an hour before bedtime. Taking away electronics isn't enough - he is still exposed to white light from lightbulbs, which contains a significant blue component. The goggles will block all blue light from reaching his eyes and get his brain to start generating melatonin so he can fall asleep earlier.

Also, how much light does his bedroom get? He may need a sleep mask to cover his eyes during sleep. Blue light can filter through one's eyelids and interfere with melatonin production.

I do this myself, and it literally changed my life.

Also, let the kid sleep in on weekends as long as he wants. He's operating at a severe sleep deficit now, and needs to catch up.
