Green Light Filtering Glasses for Traumatic Brain Injury
What You Need to Know Before You Apply
What is the purpose of this trial?
The purpose of this pilot study is to evaluate whether narrow-band green light filtering glasses improve symptom management and participation in rehabilitation among individuals recovering from traumatic brain injury (TBI). Common post-traumatic symptoms such as photophobia, headaches, difficulty concentrating, anxiety, and sleep disturbances may interfere with engagement in rehabilitation therapies and limit recovery. This study will examine whether use of green light filtering eyewear reduces symptom burden and improves participation in physical, occupational, and speech therapy sessions. Findings will provide preliminary evidence regarding the feasibility and potential clinical utility of green light filtering eyewear as a non-pharmacologic intervention during rehabilitation.

Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Active Control
Participants will wear narrow-band green light filtering glasses during the intervention period while receiving standard inpatient traumatic brain injury rehabilitation. The glasses are intended to reduce exposure to selected wavelengths of light and may help reduce symptoms such as headache, photophobia, dizziness, and cognitive fatigue that could interfere with rehabilitation participation.
Participants will receive standard inpatient traumatic brain injury rehabilitation without the use of narrow-band green light filtering glasses during the control period. All other aspects of rehabilitation care will remain unchanged.
