The military concluded that ~500 nm light (a green with with hint of blue) is the best for contrast in low light conditions and for things like reading a map. However, long term low light exposure is generally better with red, although for those of us that are color challenged" and have to get a special test just to keep our licenses (at least until BasicMed came around...thanks), low level white or light green is just fine. The goal is to not flood your retina with light.
YMMV.
