Your retina is loaded with melanin and iron.
Blue light excites both, driving reactive oxygen species like superoxide.
Under the sun, Infrared helps clear it.
Under LEDs, there is no Infrared.
So the radical just sits there. Burning.
Sunlight comes with a fire extinguisher built in.
Your LED doesn't.
