Comparing electronic hydrogen with muonic hydrogen shows that the discrepancy in measurement of the Lamb shift in the both systems are relatively of order of . We explore the spectrum of hydrogen atom in non-commutative
to compare the non-commutative effects on the both bound states. We show that in the Lorentz-violating non-commutative QED the ratio of NC-corrections is
while in the Lorentz-conserving NCQED is
. An uncertainty about
in the Lamb shift of hydrogen atom leads to an NC correction of about
in the Lorentz-violating non-commutative QED and about
in the Lorentz-conserving non-commutative QED.
