Is sleep apnea a disability?

Sleep apnea may be a handicap if it severely impacts everyday life or job. Breathing regularly stops and begins throughout sleep, causing sleep fragmentation and daytime weariness. Severe instances may impede physical and cognitive function, affecting quality of life and job effectiveness. Modvigil 200 mg, a modafinil brand, is used to treat sleep apnea-related daytime drowsiness. It improves alertness and cognition but does not treat the cause. Medical proof that sleep apnea seriously restricts one's capacity to work is usually required for disability compensation. On a case-by-case basis, severe sleep apnea patients with substantial functional difficulties may be eligible for disability compensation. Healthcare and legal professionals can guide you through this procedure.
