For the people who have eye-problems, here is something that may be able to help. And the great part of it all is that they can do it while you are asleep. These are called the Ortho-K lenses, something worn when you sleep and taken off in the morning and thus producing better vision.

These lenses were designed to mold the shape of the cornea. When the cornea’s curvature is reshaped, the resulting flattening can be enough to compensate for myopia, or nearsightedness, as in Meghan’s case. This allows good vision without wearing glasses or contact lenses during waking hours; the lenses reshape the cornea while the person sleeps.

The introduction of these new lenses should be something great for the people wanting to improve their visual problems. The Ortho-K lenses cost from $1,900 to $4,000, depending on the difficulty of the prescription, as in cases of astigmatism or a need for bifocals.

Reading has always been advised to help you go to sleep. But you also have to address the fact that proper room lighting for your eyes and overall sleep is equally important. With that in mind, the Nachteule Reading Light should be an ideal add, especially for people who want to do some preliminary reading prior to their actual slumber.

The Nachteule reading light is based on LED white light technology equivalent to a 60W bulb. It runs on a lithium-ion battery which should be good for around 20 minutes. The device costs 19.95 EUROS and can be clipped to your glasses if you are worried about how to use it.

While many people are battling their sleepiness with various pills and drinks, here is one device that can easily wake you up, if you happen to want to stay awake. The device is the Wink Glasses. They are a clip-on device which monitor your alertness.

By counting how often you blink. Your blink rate will tell it if you are getting tired. If it senses that you are dozing, the glass will turn opaque and supposedly, that will wake you up. Not a bad gadget to have and maybe great for people who have to stay awake extensively due to work or for some other reason.
