RE: Why does looking at green vegetation feel like meditation?

in #life8 years ago

I remember coming across something somewhere recently that said green helps to 'refresh the eyes' (perhaps the visual cortex) after looking at computer screens for too long. Green is generally unrepresented in computer screen imagery, and our eyes become tired looking at so much blue and red. Spending some time looking at green then resets our ability to tell the difference between subtle variations of blue and red again.

That is a very good point @antonchanning. I do get tired of looking at the laptop since I work online and I take breaks often and try to look outside and you are right that looking at green does help. Ultimately I wish they would make a laptop like the Kindle paper-white black and white screen that thing is amazing for eyes almost like looking at paper. Thanks for the feedback @antonchanning.
