PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide light therapy to a subject.SOLUTION: Light therapy is provided to a subject using a system and/or method. The light therapy includes the administration of electromagnetic radiation to an eyeball of the subject underneath the eyelid of the subject while the eyelid of the subject is closed (e.g., as the subject sleeps). The light therapy algorithm may be designed to impact melatonin and/or serotonin levels within the body of the subject in a therapeutically beneficial manner. For example, the light therapy algorithm may be designed to impact melatonin and/or serotonin levels to treat one or more of sleep disorder and/or mood disorder (e.g., seasonal affective disorder, non-seasonal depression, circadian rhythm disruption), or other disorders treatable with control over melatonin and/or serotonin levels in the body. |
