The purpose of the SCST system is to both objectively and subjectively test for positive outcomes in three main categories of color sensitive patients. These groups consist of patients with concussion, reading disabilities and the severe headache or migraine sufferer. The percentage of patients suffering from visual discomfort after concussion is quite high; upwards of 70% in some studies. The percentage of these patients that can be helped with color filters or lenses is currently under investigation. However, some patients may get relief from their symptoms who do not respond to more traditional therapies.

Some patients simply respond better to specific colors of tinted lens than simple gray lenses, which act as neutral density filters. Gray lenses simply reduce the overall amount of light reaching the eye. It is still unclear exactly how certain wavelengths of light work to achieve this, but it is thought that it changes the timing between the m-cell and p-cell system, or more commonly referred to as the central and peripheral vision.
The SCST flippers contain the most common colors chosen by color sensitive patients. The use of color overlays is an alternative method for determining the
optimum color, but studies have shown that the difference between colors chosen with overlays may vary significantly compared to the colors chosen when affecting the full field with lenses. Ideally the most exact way to choose a color is with a colorimeter, but the cost of the instrument and the expensive of custom tinting may be prohibitive for many practices.
A much less expensive and yet effective way of testing and treating the color sensitive patient is the combination of diagnostic flippers and confirmation glasses of the SCST system.

EyElightsTM EYELIGHTS $219.95 *Includes Clear Lens
By stimulating the weaker side of the brain you allow it to become stronger, thus improving overall performance both mentally and physically. Eyelights can be used by anyone since everyone has one side of the brain that functions at a higher level than the other. Eyelights are being worn by children with learning disabilities in order to keep them more attentive and focused in the classroom. Athletes are wearing Eyelights to increase performance on the field or to push through a plateau. Anyone can wear Eyelights to deal more effectively with stress, depression, or neurological disorders.
EyElights haVE BEEN kNoWN to hElP With thE folloWiNg:
• Cellular Immediate Early Gene Response
• ADHD
• Dyslexia
• Stroke
• Multiple Sclerosis • Autism
Eyelights target the weaker functioning side of the brain via the non-dominate eye. Light stimulation directly to the non-dominate brain causes and excitatory barrage to travel to the mesencephalon, the most metabolic area of the brain, where an increase in cellular function occurs.
