Solution for travel sickness
Created by Ana Faustino at Friday, 1 April 2022
If you're one of the 30 million Europeans affected by motion sickness during long journeys, Citroën's invention is ideal for you.
Over the last four years, since the launch of the Seetroën, as the glasses are called, which allow the symptoms of vomiting and nausea to be eliminated, thousands have been sold. Their affordable price is one of the reasons for the success of this equipment, which was initially designed for the navy.

The anti-sickness glasses have a technology that, through a colored liquid, simulates the horizon line, putting an end to the sensory conflict that causes nausea and vomiting. So, as soon as the first symptoms of motion sickness appear, you should put on the glasses and keep them on for 10 to 12 minutes and maintain eye contact with an immovable object, such as a smartphone or a book. As it doesn't have lenses, it can be worn by any member of the family, even if they have prescription glasses, and children from the age of 10 can also wear them, as this is the age at which the inner ear reaches its maximum level of growth.

You can find this equipment on sale on the Citroën website for €99, but bear in mind that this is a paramedical device, which is affected by the use of anti-sickness drugs, as the glasses allow you to resynchronize your vision with the perceptions of the inner ear, whose functioning is disturbed by the action of these drugs.
