Sleep problems and regulation difficulties are frequent in the child and adolescent psychiatry population. Insomnia and delayed sleep-wake phase disorders (DSPWD) are highly prevalent, and risk factors for developing more severe illness courses and chronic disorders. Pharmacological treatments of sleep disorders dominate even for the youngest patients but are unsupported by long-term data on outcome and side effects. The majority of non-pharmacological treatment options are composite and resource demanding. The investigators will examine the effects and feasibility of the isolated intervention of evening/night use of blue-blocking glasses/real darkness as adjunctive treatment for insomnia and delayed sleep phase disorder in inpatient and outpatient settings for children and adolecents.
The investigators will conduct a pilot study to examine the effect and feasibility of blue-blocking glasses as adjunctive treatment for insomnia and delayed sleep phase disorder in child and adolescent inpatients and outpatient settings. If the intervention and protocol are feasible and promising with regards to clinical and physiological effects, the study will provide a sound base for planning larger multicenter RCT's. Blue-blocking glasses are a minimal risk, low-cost intervention, and have potential to improve illness-course through improved sleep and healthier circadian function. The intervention may reduce the need for pharmacological treatment for sleep and circadian disorders and enhance coping strategies for the adolescents and their caregivers. Lastly, the pilot study will yield much needed data on light conditions (daylight and nightlight) in hospital environments for children and adolescents and may contribute to improved sleep conditions in hospital wards.

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Change form baseline in sleep onset latency (SOL) at 1 week | Sleep onset latency (minutes) subjectively assessed in sleep diary and objectively assessed from actigraphy derived sleep parameters. Sleep onset latency describes how long it takes to fall asleep from the moment the person tries to fall asleep to sleep starts. | From baseline to after 1 week of intervention. For outpatients, SOL is also measured after 2 weeks of intervention. |
| Change from baseline in overnight melatonin production at 1 week | Quantity of melatonin metabolite 6-sulphatoxymelatonin (aMT6s) in the total overnight urine volume (µg). | From baseline after 1 week of intervention. For outpatients 6-sulphatoxymelatonin, is also analyzed after 2 weeks of intervention. |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |

| Affektive Reactivity Index, relf reported (ARI-S) | Self-report form for rating irritability, minimum value 7, maximum value 21, high score indicates worse outcome. | From baseline to after 7 days of intervention. For outpatients ARI-S and ARI-P are also assessed after 14 days of intervention. |
| Self-report Generalized Anxiety Disorder -7 (GAD-7) |

GAD-7 is 7- item self-report questionnaire used for rating general symptoms of anxiety, minimum value 7, maximum value 28, high score indicates worse outcome. |
| From baseline to after 7 days of intervention. For outpatients, ARI-S and ARI-P are also assessed after 14 days of intervention. |
| Patient Health Questionnaire (PHQ-9) | PHQ-9 is a nine-item self-report questionnaire rating depressive symptoms, minimum value 9, maximum value 36, high score indicate worse outcome. | From baseline to end of 7 days intervention. For outpatients, PHQ-9 is also assessed after 14 days of intervention. |
| KID-SCREEN-10 | The KID-SCREEN 10 is self report instrument for assessing quality of life for children and adolescents, minimum value 10, maxium value 50, high score indicates better outcome. | From baseline to end of 7 days intervention.
