AYO+ Circadian Light Therapy Glasses

AYO+ Circadian Light Therapy Glasses

Manufacturer: AYO

NEW MODEL – AYO+

AYO+ Circadian Light Therapy Glasses work alongside the AYO companion app to deliver a customised light therapy program to naturally boost energy, decrease morning drowsiness, minimise jet lag symptoms, and improve sleep health. These circadian health wearables are designed to support energy, sleep, and circadian rhythm, especially useful during winter when natural light exposure is reduced. AYO offers safe, wearable light therapy with app-based programs tailored to sleep, travel, and performance.

Awarded the National Sleep Foundation’s 2022 SleepTech® Award. 

The AYO Circadian Light Therapy Glasses are an advanced wearable solution designed to regulate the body’s internal clock through safe and effective blue-turquoise light therapy. Clinically validated and supported by chronobiology research, AYO helps users optimise energy levels, improve sleep-wake cycles, and support circadian alignment – particularly important during the darker months of the year when natural light exposure is reduced.

Compact, lightweight, and easy to integrate into daily routines, AYO provides users with a non-invasive way to improve overall wellbeing by simulating the positive effects of natural sunlight. Whether used for combating winter-related fatigue, managing jet lag, or improving shift work adaptation, AYO empowers users with a science-backed, drug-free approach to better health and performance.

For clinicians, health practitioners, and wellness professionals, AYO offers a reliable, user-friendly tool to support patient outcomes in sleep health, circadian rhythm regulation, and seasonal energy management – especially useful in winter when many individuals experience disrupted sleep or mood patterns due to decreased daylight hours.

How sleep therapists and clinicians may use AYO with patients:

  • To support CBT-I protocols by reinforcing morning circadian cues and improving sleep efficiency
  • As part of a winter sleep management plan, helping counteract circadian disruption due to reduced light exposure
  • To assist patients with irregular sleep-wake schedules, such as shift workers or students
  • To help realign circadian rhythms in patients adjusting from travel or daylight savings time
  • In cases where patients report low morning energy or delayed sleep phase behaviours
  • As a non-pharmacological adjunct to other sleep interventions in clinic or home-based settings
  • To promote consistent wake-time anchoring for patients needing structure in their sleep routine

AYO’s integration with the companion app also allows clinicians to provide structured light exposure plans tailored to patient needs, increasing engagement and compliance outside of the clinic.

AYO’s approach to Circadian Health is essential for keeping our circadian rhythms in synchrony with the 24-hour day & night cycle. The human body functions based on finely synchronised biological processes. Desynchronisation between social and biological time constitute a regular challenge for many people nowadays. As a result, serious consequences for sleep, wellbeing and health can follow. Daily provision of timed light and dark exposure with additional “time cues” to the circadian rhythm will help maintain restorative sleep, wellbeing and health.

Recognition:

The AYO Circadian Light Therapy Glasses are designed for use across a variety of applications related to circadian rhythm and energy regulation. Use cases include:

  • Winter energy support – Ideal for individuals experiencing reduced sunlight exposure, lower mood, or decreased alertness during winter
  • Sleep-wake regulation – Supports more consistent sleep and wake times by reinforcing natural circadian cues
  • Shift work support – Helps shift workers align their biological clock to changing schedules
  • Jet lag management – Aids in adjusting to new time zones more quickly and with fewer symptoms
  • Performance enhancement – Improves daytime energy and mental clarity when used consistently as part of a daily wellness routine
  • Digital wellness programs – AYO can be integrated into telehealth, workplace wellness, or home-based therapy plans for non-invasive circadian support.

The AYO device is grounded in over 20 years of chronobiology research and has been featured in multiple peer-reviewed studies related to light therapy, circadian rhythm regulation, and sleep science. The specific blue-turquoise wavelength used by AYO (around 470nm) has been shown to be highly effective in stimulating the body’s natural alerting system without disrupting melatonin production later in the day.

Clinical research supports the use of morning light exposure to synchronise the sleep-wake cycle, particularly during the winter months when reduced natural light can lead to circadian misalignment and lower energy levels. AYO leverages these findings by delivering optimised light in a convenient, wearable form.

The AYO companion app uses algorithms based on circadian science to deliver tailored light schedules for sleep improvement, travel recovery, and energy enhancement—making it suitable for professional use across a range of health, wellness, and performance settings.

89% of AYO users reported boosted energy levels, a better night’s sleep and general vitality.

AYO’s health and wellness benefits have been clinically proven with more than 25,000 people, over one million light sessions and 10 completed clinical trials.
