Abstract: Disorders of the eye can be treated by photobiomodulation therapy according to a device designed to direct light into a patient's eye, no matter the configuration of the eye. The device, including a printed circuit board that includes an array of light delivery devices and a heat sink lens, can be placed proximal to the patient's eye. The light delivery devices can be powered to generate light. The light can be directed into the patient's eye regardless of a position of the patient's eye.

Abstract: Photobiomedulation therapy (PBMT) can be applied to the eye to treat optical neuritis, a sign of multiple sclerosis (MS). The light of PBMT can be directed into the eye, regardless of the position of the eye, by a device that includes an array of light delivery devices and a heat sink lens. The device can be placed proximal to the eye to direct the light into the eye. The light can have one or more wavelengths from 400-1100 nm and can be applied in at least one of a pulsed operating mode, a continuous operating mode, and a super-pulsed operating mode through the light source device to the skeletal muscle. The light signal is applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in the retina and/or the optic nerve. PBMT applied in this manner provides a noninvasive, safe and effective treatment for optic neuritis.

Abstract: A therapeutic device and related method of use are described. The device features a flexible member that includes one or more emitters of for example, electromagnetic radiation, thermal energy, magnetic fields, and/or electrical fields. The device can be readily attached and removed from a user's skin by sealingly contacting the flexible member upon a region of the user's body of interest to create a vacuum. The device may also impart other therapeutically beneficial results such as intensified blood circulation from formation of the vacuum along the user's skin, and can also be used for blood irradiation.
