Screens emit blue light (among other light, of course). Blue light has been shown to inhibit melatonine production. Melatonine is the sleep hormone. Low levels make you sleep bad. Therefore it is recommended to Switch off screens one hour prior to sleep, so the Body can start producing and releasing said hormone.
