We often hear that evening light disrupts sleep. But what if light — when transformed correctly — could actually improve it? Here’s how NeuroVIZR turns bright light into a powerful tool for better rest.

The topic can be quite confusing because the message seems to be that bright light in the evening is almost “evil” when it comes to Sleep.  Red lenses and “blue blocker” glasses are the new “must have” and Sleep Hygiene protocols warn against evening light.  So, how can the bright flashing light of the NeuroVIZR be so effective at training and inducing Better Sleep?

Here's the Trick in the Tip!  The secret is in two parts:

1. Full Spectrum Light (Eyes Closed Filtering)

  • NeuroVIZR uses full spectrum white light containing blue, green, and red wavelengths.
  • Blue light is the disruptor, as it activates melanopsin sensors and interferes with melatonin production.
  • Closed eyes act as a natural filter, blocking 98–99% of disruptive blue light.
  • This keeps the melatonin system safe and prevents sleep pathways from being disturbed.

2. Red Light as a Sleep Signal

  • The light that passes through closed eyelids is mostly red (with a bit of green, depending on skin tone and eyelid thickness).
  • This red light creates rhythmic signals (like a neural tapping pattern) that the brain processes in the Visual Cortex.
  • The flicker information helps the brain align with the correct phase of the circadian cycle depending on session timing: Morning, Mid-Day, Early Evening, or Late Evening.

Red Light as a Sleep Signal

The Result

The result is safe, non-irritating light that helps your brain enter deeper, more restorative rest — naturally improving your nights and your days.
