I have severe migraines. Blue light is a massive trigger. I have to work from home because of it. F.lux is noticeably helpful.

I use specialty glasses that are amazing for for filtering out blue light. Not just your typical prescription glasses that have a minor filter.

I use Fl-41 lenses with wrap arounds (keep out ambient light)

If I Walk into a store without them I have a full blown migraine in 15 minutes. Longer I stay, that worse it is.

With proper glasses I can manage better than an hour before any issues.

So yea, blue lights definitely affect the brain.

Go onto migraine forums and you’ll see a lot of the same reports.
