Year after year, I suffer from what my mum used to call the “post-Christmas blues” but is commonly referred to as SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder). As a result, I am always interested in any product that claims to be able to help. I try to use my lightbox around this time of the year to keep those low and tired feelings away, but it is quite large and requires plugging in at the mains, which means if I am not sat at my desk first thing in the morning, I miss that important early dose recommended for my symptoms. If I am away from my desk all day, I often go without any light therapy at all, so I was excited about the Luminette Light Therapy Glasses if for nothing other than their portability.

The Luminette Glasses are beautifully packaged - they come with a high quality, hard protective case, with a zip pocket inside to store the charger and cable. They also come with a microfiber cloth, neck cord and instruction booklet. The glasses themselves are solid - they feel durable, but are light at the same time, and they feel comfortable to wear, with an adjustable nose guard to help you get the correct position.

Luminette Light Glasses produce a white light enhanced with blue light, peaking at 468 nm, which has been scientifically proven as the most effective wavelength for simulating our body’s positive responses to sunlight. The optical device allows the light beam to enter your eye naturally, just like the sun, without dazzling your eyes or obscuring your vision. This means you can carry on your routine whilst wearing them. One five-hour battery charge will get you three to six hours of light time, and the LED will flash when you turn the glasses off to indicate how much battery life is left. You can choose between three settings: 500, 1000 and 1500 Lux. Sessions of use are recommended to last between 20-45 mins depending on the setting - there is even a handy timer feature to let you know when you are done.

I love everything about these glasses: they look awesome, they’re beautifully made, they have loads of handy features and best of all, they so simple to use. Pop them on, brush your teeth, work at your computer or simply sit down in front of the TV with a cuppa, you’re free to get on with your day. RRP £199.99
