I sleep with my phone next to my bed every night just in case there is ever an emergency with a friend or family member. When I wake up in the middle of the night, I can't help but look at my phone. Sometimes I'll read texts and emails if I have them too. I heard that light from your phone at night can be harmful to your eyes and disrupt your sleep. Is that true?
