Blue light accelerates retinal aging. Previous studies have indicated that wavelengths between 400 and 455 nm are most harmful to aging retinal pigment epithelia (RPE). This study explored whether filtering these wavelengths can protect cells exposed to broad sunlight. Primary porcine RPE cells loaded with 20 µM A2E were exposed to emulated sunlight filtered through eye media at 1.8 mW/cm for 18 h. Filters selectively filtering out light over 400-455 nm and a dark-yellow filter were interposed. Cell damage was measured by apoptosis, hydrogen peroxide (HO) production, and mitochondrial membrane potential (MMP). Sunlight exposure increased apoptosis by 2.7-fold and HO by 4.8-fold, and halved MMP compared to darkness. Eye Protect System (EPS) technology, filtering out 25% of wavelengths over 400-455 nm, reduced apoptosis by 44% and HO by 29%. The Multilayer Optical Film (MOF), at 80% of light filtered, reduced apoptosis by 91% and HO by 69%, and increased MMP by 73%, overpassing the dark-yellow filter. Photoprotection increased almost linearly with blue-violet light filtering (400-455 nm) but not with total blue filtering (400-500 nm). Selective filters filtering out 25% (EPS) to 80% (MOF) of blue-violet light offer substantial protection without affecting perception or non-visual functions, making them promising for preventing light-induced retinal damage with aesthetic acceptance for permanent wear.
蓝光会加速视网膜衰老。先前的研究表明,400至455纳米之间的波长对衰老的视网膜色素上皮(RPE)危害最大。本研究探讨了滤除这些波长是否能保护暴露在强烈阳光下的细胞。将加载了20µM A2E的原代猪RPE细胞置于通过眼介质过滤的模拟阳光下,强度为1.8 mW/cm²,照射18小时。分别插入选择性滤除400 - 455纳米以上波长的滤光片和深黄色滤光片。通过细胞凋亡、过氧化氢(HO)生成和线粒体膜电位(MMP)来测量细胞损伤。与黑暗环境相比,阳光照射使细胞凋亡增加了2.7倍,HO增加了4.8倍,MMP减半。Eye Protect System(EPS)技术滤除了25%的400 - 455纳米以上波长,使细胞凋亡减少了44%,HO减少了29%。多层光学膜(MOF)滤除了80%的光线,使细胞凋亡减少了91%,HO减少了69%,并使MMP增加了73%,超过了深黄色滤光片。光保护作用几乎随蓝紫光滤除(400 - 455纳米)呈线性增加,但不随总蓝光滤除(400 - 500纳米)而增加。选择性滤除25%(EPS)至80%(MOF)蓝紫光的滤光片在不影响视觉或非视觉功能的情况下提供了显著的保护作用,使其有望用于预防光诱导的视网膜损伤,且具有美观性,适合长期佩戴。
