LG Display announced that its entire lineup of OLED TV and monitor panels, from 27 to 97 inches (all of its WOLED panels), have become the world’s first displays to receive Eyesafe Circadian Certification. LG Display’s OLED TV and monitor panels achieved the highest circadian certification rating (CPF 50).
EyeSafe, a US-based company specializing in blue light mitigation solutions, says that LG's OLED panels are promoting eye health and better sleep, as the emit just 36% blue light, the lowest in the industry.
EyeSafe explains that human circadian rhythms repeat around every 24 hours, and are are maintained by key hormones such as melatonin, which induces sleep, and have been found to be disrupted by nighttime exposure to screens. Eyesafe has developed the Circadian Protection Factor (CPF) evaluation by assessing the proportion of blue light emitted by a screen and its impact on melatonin secretion.
In July, LG Display and Kookmin University confirmed the results of a clinical trial demonstrating that watching mini LED TV panels in the evening led to a 2.7% decrease in melatonin secretion among subjects, compared to an 8.1% increase among those viewing OLED TVs.
