Researchers from university of Arizona Health Sciences found that people who suffer from migraine may benefit from green light therapy, which was shown to reduce the frequency and intensity of headaches and improve patient quality of life.

As per Migraine Research Foundation, it (migraine) is the third most prevalent illness in the world, affecting 39 million people in the United States (US) and 1 billion around the globe.
This is the first clinical study to evaluate green light exposure as a potential preventive therapy for patients with migraine.
During the study process, patients were exposed to white light for one to two hours a day for ten weeks. After a two-week break, they were exposed to green light for 10 weeks.
None of the study participants reported any side effects of green light exposure.
The recent studies show that there are neuronal connections that span from the retina all the way to the spinal cord, passing through the parts of the brain that control and modulate pain.
A neurologist at Houston Methodist Hospital stated that, “Green light changes the levels of serotonin and alters the endogenous opioid system, an innate pain-relieving system found throughout the central and peripheral nervous system, gastrointestinal tract and immune system”.
