Do you also find that you feel just too<br \/>\nwide awake to fall or stay asleep during the night time?  If you are blind, this<br \/>\ncould be due to a real sleep problem related to the lack of light needed to keep<br \/>\nyour body&#8217;s internal clock in sync with the day and night cycle.  If you or<br \/>\nsomeone you know might be affected, please call 1-888-389-7033 or email<br \/>\ninfo@non24registry.com to learn about an ongoing clinical research study that is<br \/>\nevaluating a new investigational treatment for this type of sleep problem.
