Popis:	Novel findings in the chronobiology show that light plays an important role in the synchronization of the inner biological rhythms of a human with outer environment. Such synchronization is mediated by newly found light-sensitive receptors which don't contribute to the visual perception of light. The results of the ongoing research show that the correct prediction of the light induced melatonin suppression based on the measurements of spectral irradiance at cornea is possible. The correct account for major influence factors allows proposing the standard evaluation procedure for non-visual action of light.
