What is Light Therapy for Vision?
Light therapy for vision, also known as syntonic phototherapy, is a noninvasive treatment that uses specific wavelengths of light to help improve visual function and neurological balance. This technique is especially effective in addressing issues involving eye-brain communication. At Better Brain Vision Therapy in Arvada, CO, Dr. Shadaanan Singh incorporates syntonic light therapy into vision therapy programs to support patients dealing with visual stress, eye strain, and post-concussion symptoms.
How is Light Therapy Performed?
Syntonic phototherapy is conducted using a light unit equipped with colored filters that emit specific wavelengths. During a session, the patient gazes into the filtered light for about 10 – 20 minutes while seated comfortably. Dr. Singh selects the filter colors based on each patient's symptoms and visual needs. Syntonic light therapy is often combined with other vision therapy techniques to support more complete visual and neurological rehabilitation.
What Are the Benefits of Light Therapy for Vision?
This gentle, science-based approach can help reduce symptoms and enhance overall visual performance. Potential benefits include:
- Improved eye tracking and focusing ability
- Enhanced depth perception and spatial awareness
- Reduced light sensitivity and eye strain
