Modern urban human activities are largely restricted to the indoors, deprived of direct sunlight containing visible and near-infrared (NIR) wavelengths at high irradiance levels. Therapeutic exposure to doses of red and NIR, known as photobiomodulation (PBM), has been effective for a broad range of conditions. In a double-blind, randomized, placebo...
Light is an important environmental stimulus for the entrainment of the circadian clock and for increasing alertness. The intrinsically photosensitive ganglion cells in the retina play an important role in transferring this light information to the circadian system and they are elicited in particular by short-wavelength light. Exposure to short wav...
Light has a great impact in our everyday life for vision, but also for non-visual processes. The recent discovery of photosensitive retinal ganglion cells triggers new studies on the non-visual effects of light's spectral composition. In the present study via the use of soft orange contact lenses we investigated how, under natural conditions, a red...
