Luminette are light therapy glasses designed to provide relief from sleep issues and even seasonal affective disorder.
Users wear the glasses (choosing between three progressive light intensity levels) for a given time period between 20 – 45 minutes. The light has been clinically proven to help restore circadian rhythms to normality and therefore help with sleep disorders (and in doing so, give users more energy).
Luminette’s 1,500-lux blue-enriched white light is output from LEDs. It hits the diffraction lens and stimulates the retina, without affecting vision. Light shines downwards into the eyes, just as sunlight naturally does. Receptors in the eye then send a signal to the body’s circadian clock regulator, stopping the secretion of melatonin, which naturally “wakes up” all body systems.
Although, the glasses look futuristic, the idea is really very simple and the device itself is equally easy to use.
