1. An electronic device comprising:
a light transmission filter configured to:
block 5% to 50% transmission of blue light having a wavelength within a range of 400-500 nm such that energetic blue light photons are prevented from reaching a human eye, wherein the light transmission filter is a component of a first film, a first layer, or a first coating, and
provide an average light transmission of at least 80% across a wavelength range of 460-700 nm; and
a color balancing element configured to reduce, offset, neutralize, or compensate for an unwanted color effect of the light transmission filter such that a desired color of light transmitted through the electronic device reaches the human eye, wherein the color balancing element is a component of a second film, a second layer, or a second coating, and wherein the color balancing element is disposed on the light transmission filter or the light transmission filter is disposed on the color balancing element.
