Alzheimer's, a progressive brain disorder, has plagued countless people across the world. The causes of the diseases are yet to be understood in entirety.

In this scenario, every study throws some light on the disease and tries to find out its cause.

A new study has found out that exposure to bright lights at night time might increase the chances of suffering from Alzheimer's.

The study by Frontiers in Neuroscience found out that bright lights like streetlights and illuminated signs may cause a rise in Alzheimer's, especially in younger people.

Some reports claim people under the age of 65 are prone to get Alzheimer's due to night light as said by an associate professor at Rush University Medical Center.

The authors of the study have suggested people use blockout curtains or eye masks to block the lights at night time.

Alzheimer's causes loss of memories and thinking skills.
