The Effect of Light Therapy on Post-Surgical Pain

You will be asked to locate a dark room in your house 8 weeks prior to your surgery. You will place the provided LED strip near you on a flat surface and turn it on for 2 hours a day until the day of the surgery (8 weeks). You have the freedom to pick anytime during day or night to use the light. We will ask you to be as consistent as possible with your chosen time. You can engage in any activity to pass the time as long as it does not involve exposure to another light from an outside source (computers, TV, smartphones, tablets, etc.).
