Iris Tech is a downloadable software for your computer that protects your circadian rhythm and health in a few key ways:

Blue Light:
Iris gradually adjusts the blue light from your computer screen throughout the day and night.

Brightness:
Iris will match your screen’s brightness to the light around you. Different presets will automatically adjust your screen.

Flicker:
Iris optimizes screen pulsations (flicker) by controlling brightness on your screen without utilizing Pulse Wave Modulation (PWM), mitigating common effects of flicker, like headaches, nervous system dysregulation, and more.

It has 9 presets:
Choose between 3x9 different combinations:

• Modes

  • Automatic

  • Manual

  • Paused

• Types

  • Health

  • Sleep

  • Reading

  • Programming

  • Biohacker

  • Sunglasses

  • Dark

  • Movie

  • Overlay

You can use Iris for free for one week (or one month if an existing user invites you). But the paid version is only $15 for lifetime access that will give you free minor build changes and bug fixes as well as major feature updates.

I personally use the “Custom” mode almost all the time, where my screen adjusts from fully red when it’s dark, to deep yellow during the day, to orange in the evening.

If I ever need more screen visibility, I simply switch to the “Health” mode, which is still very yellow (removing much of the blue), but is still easier to see than orange or red when daylight is fading or gone. (But I generally never use anything other than red at night.)
