The

Science

Of True Narrow Band Green Light

What is True Narrow Band Green Light, or nbGL?

MiOptics patented technology filters out all of the colors in the light spectrum with the exception of a very narrow band of green light. MiOptics lenses with patented technology are the only lenses on the market that provide a true band of narrow green light.

Why is nbGL good for the brain?

Narrow band green light (nbGL) has many therapeutic benefits, unlike full-spectrum light, which can create disruptive micro-electrical signals in the eyes and brain. Seeing only a true narrow band of green light is soothing and interacts with the brain and nervous system and provides drug-free, noninvasive relief for a variety of symptoms.

The Experience

How do MiOptics lenses work?

The lenses filter colors that overstimulate your brain. This reduces the electrical signals sent to the brain for a more soothing experience.
