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: Disorders of the eye can be treated by photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) delivered by a PBMT device. The PBMT device can be configured for placement directly over a patient's eye socket to deliver light into the patient's eye regardless of a position of the patient's eye, while preventing blue light from entering the patient's eye (e.g., due to a filter within the PBMT device and/or an opacity of the housing of the PBMT device). The PBMT device can be powered by a controller.

Abstract: During a period of lack of use, a person risks muscle atrophy and/or otherwise losing muscle strength/functionality. During such a period of lack of user, a photoceutical can be applied to the person’s muscle(s) through a photoceutical medical device to decrease the occurrence of these risks. The photoceutical is specially configured to reduce these risks and includes at least one of a pulsed light signal, a continuous light signal, and a super-pulsed light signal.

Abstract: Respiratory function can be preserved and/or enhanced in patients with a respiratory insufficiency using a photoceutical applied by a photoceutical medical device to at least one primary inspiratory muscle and/or a lung. At least one site on a body of a patient can be selected for delivery of the photoceutical to the muscle(s); and the photoceutical can be applied at the at least one site by the photoceutical medical device for a time period from a first start time to a first end time to treat the at least one primary inspiratory muscle and/or the lung of the patient to preserve and/or enhance the respiratory function. The photoceutical can include a light signal with at least one delivery scheme (e.g., superpulsed, pulsed. and/or continuous) and one or more wavelengths.

Abstract: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) can be applied to a tender area on a subject's body to treat fibromyalgia. A light source device can be contacted to a subject's skin proximal to a tender area on the subject's body.

The light signal is applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in the tender area to treat fibromyalgia.

Abstract: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) can be applied to a dystrophic muscle to delay dystrophy progression. A light source device can be contacted to a subject's skin proximal to a dystrophic muscle or muscle group. A light signal (with wavelengths from the red to infrared part of the spectrum) 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 dystrophic muscle or muscle group. The light signal is applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in the dystrophic muscle or muscle group.

Abstract: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) can be used to improve functional mobility of stroke survivors. A light source device can be contacted to a subject's skin proximal to an area of hemiplegia within a subject due to the stroke. A light signal (with wavelengths from the red to infrared part of the spectrum) 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 area of hemiplegia. The light signal is applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in the area of hemiplegia to improve the functional mobility of the subject.

Abstract: Photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) provides an effective, non-invasive treatment for urinary incontinence that can be used discretely. A light source device can be contacted to a subject's skin proximal to a subject's bladder. A light signal 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 subject's skin proximal to the subject's bladder. The light signal can be applied for a time sufficient to stimulate a phototherapeutic response in one or more muscles and/or nerves proximal to the bladder to treat urinary incontinence.
