We investigated the effectiveness of morning blue light in advancing the sleep and melatonin rhythm of individuals with mild delayed sleep phase syndrome. The participants (n = 18) were randomly allocated to a light or control group. Wake-up times were gradually advanced to 06:00 hours over a week, during which the light group also received two hours of blue light immediately after waking. The blue light group showed a significant 2.53-h advance of dim light melatonin onset, compared to no change in the control group. However, neither group had a significant advance of sleep times following treatment. Effective delayed sleep phase syndrome treatment may require adjunct behavioral instructions.
