The present invention is a method for modifying the circadian cycle of a human subject to a desired state. The method includes the steps of assessing the present circadian cycle of the human subject, determining the characteristics of a desired circadian cycle, selecting an appropriate time during which to apply a stimulus of light to effect a desired modification of the present circadian cycle, and applying the light stimulus at the selected appropriate time to achieve the desired circadian cycle for the human subject. The stimulus of light comprises monochromatic short wavelength light (446-483 nm) or white light substantially comprising short wavelength light.

Cette invention se rapporte à un procédé qui permet de modifier le cycle circadien d'un sujet humain jusqu'à un état souhaité et qui consiste à cet effet à évaluer le cycle circadien présent du sujet humain, à déterminer les caractéristiques d'un cycle circadien souhaitées, à sélectionner une durée appropriée d'application d'un stimulus lumineux, pour produire la modification souhaitée du cycle circadien présent, et à appliquer ce stimulus lumineux au moment approprié choisi, pour atteindre le cycle circadien souhaité pour ce sujet humain. Le stimulus lumineux comprend un rayonnement lumineux de faible longueur d'onde monochromatique (446 à 483 nm) ou une lumière blanche comprenant essentiellement un rayonnement lumineux de faible longueur d'onde.
