1. A method of controlling stress in an individual comprising the steps of:
- (a) testing the individual with an image reflecting device to determine stress associated colors for said individual;
(b) constructing a pair of eyeglasses containing lenses having a color which is stress-calming for the tested individual;
(c) unobtrusively carrying upon said pair of eyeglasses sensing means for determining at least two different stress levels in said individual, and alarm means connected to said sensing means for emitting two distinct signals respectively corresponding to each stress level;
(d) wearing said eyeglasses having said sensing and alarm means by said individual; and
(e) monitoring at least two stress levels in said individual wearing said eyeglasses, and in response to each stress level monitored, unobtrusively emitting color alarms, each respective alarm wherein only said individual is made aware of the alarms, and said alarms are stress-calming.

Abstract
A portable unobtrusive device to be used in combination with an imagescope. The portable device features a pair of eyeglasses having a circuit for monitoring a physiological function of the eyeglass wearer corresponding to a predetermined stress level. The circuit contains an alarm which emits an auditory and/or visual signal in response to a change in said physiological function.

8. A pair of stress relieving glasses comprising a frame to be worn about eyes of said individual wearer, said frames comprising means for supporting lens in said frame, said lenses being color coordinated to match a predetermined stress-relieving color particular to said individual wearer, whereby said individual will experience a calming effect when wearing said pair of stress relieving glasses.

9. For use with an image-reflecting device for determining stress-calming colors for each respective individual, the invention comprising:
- a pair of eyeglasses having colored lenses corresponding to a determined stress-calming color for said individual, said eyeglasses having an unobtrusive pair of alarms for signalling only to the individual two respective and distinct warnings corresponding to a minor stress level and a dangerous stress level, said alarms being self-discriminating and providing different colors to distinguish each stress level, said alarms being part of a circuit for monitoring a physiological function, said circuit having a sensor connected to each alarm, and wherein the colors emitted by said alarms are themselves stress-calming colors.
