My Amber Glasses support healthy melatonin production so you can rest. Getting enough sleep is absolutely vital for your health and well being! This is especially true for those of us who are ill and are trying to regain our health. My Amber Glasses are a HUGE help in supporting a restful night’s sleep so that you too can reap the benefits of adequate rest and maintain or take back your health.
What is blue light and how does it affect melatonin production? Blue light is a ‘wavelength’ of light present in sunlight, and many artificial light sources. Before the advent of electricity and artificial light, the only way to be exposed to blue light was by the sun! When the sun went down, blue light exposure went down with it, and, historically, your pineal gland produces melatonin in response. These days, television and computer screens, smartphones, tablets, handheld video games, e-readers and ‘smart watches’ all have bright, blue light emitting screens. Even the energy efficient light bulbs that have become ubiquitous in homes across the globe emit blue light whenever they are turned on. When we are exposed to blue light after 9pm, melatonin production drops dramatically and may even come to a stop altogether!
Amber Glasses block blue light waves! I love my Amber Glasses and I use them every evening around the house. My Amber Glasses have specially manufactured lenses that block blue light waves from passing through them. This keeps blue light from entering your eyes and brain and interfering with melatonin production in the pineal gland, which regulates sleep and your circadian rhythm. This is especially important if you watch television, use your smartphone, or are on a tablet or computer after the sun goes down.
Let me tell you about melatonin. Melatonin is a hormone naturally produced in the brain in response to changes in light exposure. Melatonin produced in the brain makes you feel tired and ready for bed. It also prepares the body and brain for sleep. Ideally, around 9pm, your pineal gland, a pea sized gland in your brain, begins to convert serotonin into melatonin. This process gradually declines as you sleep, and twelve hours later, around 9am, melatonin levels are back to daytime levels where they will stay until 9pm the next evening. By blocking blue light waves from entering your eyes and playing tricks on your brain, my Amber Glasses support healthy melatonin production.
Not getting enough rest? Supporting melatonin production supports a healthy night’s sleep. While melatonin is celebrated for a variety of its health benefits, it is by far best known for its role in supporting a healthy night’s sleep. Melatonin can help support a healthy circadian rhythm and supplement low levels of melatonin in those of us who are exposed to too much blue light after 9 pm.
My Amber Glasses are perfect for anyone who:
- Is concerned about sleeping enough hours every night

- Travels frequently and deals with ‘jet lag’
- Watches television before or in bed
- Uses smartphones, tablets, and computers after the sun has gone down
- Has lights on in the house after the sun goes down
Suggested Use: Wear for 1-2 hours before sleeping. Especially while using a computer or watching television.
FAQs
How do I use Dr. Myers Amber Glasses?
Simply put on my Amber Glasses when the sun goes down, and wear them around the house until bed time! Don’t wear them in the daytime, when driving, operating machinery of any kind, if it is too dark to see clearly, or when your eyes are injured, hurt or sore.
Is it safe for my child to use Dr. Myers’ Amber Glasses?
Yes, my Amber Glasses are generally safe for children, however, you should always work with your child’s eye doctor or qualified healthcare provider before starting if you have any concerns.
Can I use Dr. Myers Amber Glasses if I’m pregnant or nursing?
Yes! However, you should always be sure to speak with your eye doctor or qualified healthcare provider before starting if you have any concerns. Did you know that the type of light you are exposed to in the evening plays a huge role in how well you sleep each night? The blue light that is emitted from our modern electric lightbulbs, TVs, computer screens, and smartphones signals to your body that it’s daytime and that you should be alert and awake. These light wavelengths inhibit your melatonin production, making it difficult for you to naturally drift off to sleep.

Why Buy from Amy Myers MD?
You’ll know exactly what you’re getting because all products are 3rd party tested and verified. You may be surprised to know that the supplement industry is not regulated by the FDA and it’s up to the manufacturer to ensure they’re delivering high-quality products that contain what they say they do.
All of the supplements I carry in my store carry the Good Manufacturing Practices (GMP) seal, meaning they have been 3rd party tested for purity, quality, potency, and composition, so you can rest assured that you’re getting the key nutrients you’re paying for and that your body needs.
High-potency, pharmaceutical grade supplements to maximize value and impact.
Because I am a licensed physician, the supplements I carry are pharmaceutical grade, meaning they are higher quality and typically higher dosages than you can find in a health food store or online retailer.
This is vital because cost per unit is a key metric to look at when choosing supplements. If you look at a supplement such as my 100 Billion probiotic, you will find that you may need to take nearly an entire bottle of other probiotics to achieve the same potency.
My supplements contain no gluten, dairy, soy, GMOs, preservatives, dyes, or toxic ingredients. You’re not eating these inflammatory foods or toxins so why would you want them in your supplements?! I source all of the ingredients in my supplements from pure, clean sources.
There are a few incredibly rare exceptions where products contain trace amounts of dairy or egg because of the way they need to be formulated, however they are clearly marked on the product page and are in such low quantities that even my very sensitive patients typically have not had a reaction.
The highest quality ingredients in the form that is best absorbed and utilized by your body. The form and formulation of the vitamins and nutrients in your supplements make a difference! I have specifically sourced and formulated the ingredients in my products to be in their most bioavailable forms for maximum effectiveness.
Every product in my store has been personally vetted by me. Not only have I researched and tested every product I carry, I have also worked with thousands of patients to determine which formulations that produce the very best results.
