Sleep Disorders are a common ailment. It encompasses patients who have difficulty falling asleep (insomniacs) to patients who have difficulty staying awake (snorers and obstructive sleep apneics).

The commonest sleep disorder is snoring and obstructive sleep apnea. Snoring is deemed as a social nuisance, it not only affects the unhappy bed partners sleep quality and daytime quality of life, but also affects the snorer himself, as he has low oxygen at night due to stoppages in breathing and hence, stress to the brain, heart and lungs.
