Improved sleep due to blue light in Parkinson's
According to research by Radboud UMC in 2019 in collaboration with Toine Schoutens, nurse (np) and researcher, the Propeaq light therapy glasses offer valuable results for Parkinson's patients. These innovative light glasses , which emit blue light, not only improve sleep quality, but also reduce daytime sleepiness. Patients report fewer depressive symptoms and improved motor skills, which has a significant impact on their daily lives.
The results of the first phase have been published in Parkinson's Disease (Hindawi) Volume 2019. Read more about it here
Research into light therapy for Parkinson's
In 2019, Radboud UMC conducted research into the effectiveness of light therapy. The Propeaq light therapy glasses, which use specific blue light, are used to treat sleep and mood disorders. The research shows that 74% of participants experience improvements in their sleep and overall well-being, underlining the role of portable daylight in the treatment. Results from a new, more extensive study are expected in 2025.
Optimal treatment for sleep disorders
Many Parkinson's patients suffer from disrupted sleep cycles, which affects their quality of life. Instead of traditional sleep medication, using blue light therapy glasses can provide an effective and safe solution. The Propeaq light glasses help restore the sleep-wake rhythm, which is crucial for a better night's sleep and overall quality of life. Always consider in consultation with a specialist how you can effectively use these innovative light therapy glasses for your situation.
Easy to use Powerful in effect
Wear the Propeaq light therapy glasses for 30 to 60 minutes in the morning. For best results, we recommend using the light glasses immediately after waking up, but in any case before 09:00 .
At the end of the afternoon, early evening, before 7:00 PM , wear the daylight glasses again for 30 to 60 minutes.
Continue this for at least 21 days until the sleep problems are greatly reduced. If the sleep problems occur again, repeat the above advice.

Hype of Hope: innovative blue light therapy for Parkinson's during RadboudUMC Parkinson Symposium
During the RadboudUMC Parkinson Symposium on May 16, 2025, Propeaq emphasized the promising results of a 2019 study into blue light therapy in Parkinson's patients. This study, published in the journal Hindawi Parkinson's Disease, showed that three quarters of the participants, after using the Propeaq light therapy glasses for at least a week, reported improvements in sleep, mood and motor functions. This non-invasive therapy appears to be able to significantly improve the quality of life of patients. The results of a new study are expected in the summer of 2025, which is expected to further substantiate the effectiveness and safety of the therapy, called Chrono Coaching.
