SET-UP INSTRUCTIONS  
Instructions for use  
Blue light therapy consists of exposing your eyes to a sufficient quantity  
of blue light in the 460 nm range for 30 – 60 minutes, 2–3 hours prior  
to falling asleep or for the same duration in the morning. Blue Light has  
been shown to act as a “switch” to help regulate both sleep and daytime  
circadian rhythm. The Verilux® TwiLight™ Blue Light Therapy Sleep  
System should be located between 1’ and 10’ away from you during the  
exposure period.You do not need to look directly at the light to benefit  
from its effects and some people may experience discomfort if they  
stare directly at the light.  
• Locate the system on a flat surface such as a dresser or nightstand.  
Turn the system on 5 minutes prior to your session in order for it to  
develop maximum brightness.  
• Continue with your normal evening activities, but allow the healthful  
blue light to bathe you in its illumination. Other ambient light sources  
should be reduced during exposure time.  
• If a young child or infant is being treated with the TwiLight™ System,  
exposure to the direct light must be avoided to guard against  
potential damage to developing eyes.  
• Optimum exposure time is different for each person; therefore, it is  
important to test various brightness levels, times of day, exposure  
times and distances from the light source to determine which  
combination is most effective.  
Note: Eye disease researchers have found limited  
evidence that bright light and blue light therapy may cause  
additional harm to people with pre-existing eye damage  
(including glaucoma and macular degeneration), and  
could increase the incidents of age related blindness.  
Medical professionals recommend people with pre-existing  
retinal conditions be tested prior to using any bright light or  
blue light therapy system.
