Study Summary

This study will implement therapeutic bright light that is tailored to the individual's circadian typology and will estimate its effects on circadian rhythms, 4 common cancer-associated symptoms, and impact on quality of life in survivors living with cancer. Examining a selected phase marker (core body temperature) in relation to the associated clinical features (symptoms) is the starting point for future investigation of the biological mechanisms of symptoms.

Primary Outcome

Study participants kept a daily log where they listed the dates and times they used the light visor - noting time they put it on, and the time they took it off. The light exposure were recorded to assess adherence to the treatment protocol. Adherence: percentage that the study participant used the light visor for 30 minutes per day during the 14-day light therapy intervention (based on the daily log that reported use or not use of the light visor for 30 minutes for the 14 days of the interventi
