Ayo Light-Based Wearable

The AYO Light-Based therapy glasses are designed to improve wakefulness via natural suppression of melatonin production. AYO’s gentle blue light enters the user’s eyes and stimulates sensory cells in the retina called photosensitive Retinal Ganglion Cells (ipRGCs). This sends a biological signal through the optic nerve towards the suprachiasmatic nucleus, a region of the brain responsible for control of circadian rhythm. AYO blue-light therapy helps to keep the circadian rhythm in synchrony with the 24-hour day/night cycle and relive the symptoms of daytime tiredness to improve sleep quality, boost energy levels, or readjust to a new time zone after travel to beat jetlag.

AYO emits blue-turquoise light of approximately 470nm. AYO’s irradiance levels are 250 μW/cm2, equivalent to 10,000 lux of bright light. A recommended therapy time of 30 minutes, once per day, typically in the morning during the daily routine (getting dressed, brushing teeth, etc.) is ideal for most users. However,optimal time can vary from person-to-person depending on unique circadian rhythm and response to light therapy. Some users can experience positive effects on energy and mood after one session with AYO, others may need several sessions to notice a lasting benefit. AYO is designed to fit in with a user’s lifestyle to benefit their desired health & wellness goals.
