Abstract
The present disclosure describes a non-pharmacological analgesic approach using pain relieving effects of exposure to green-biased light spectrum. This green light effect is visually mediated and can be administered by exposing patients to the green-biased light spectrum by filtering ambient light. A therapeutic device is described in the form of green lensed eyeglasses and contact lenses that filter in the specific spectrum.
