Ocular treatment system and method using red and gold phototherapy

Abstract

Systems and methods of ophthalmologic or ocular phototherapy treatment are provided herein. In some embodiments, the systems and methods of ophthalmic or ocular phototherapy treatment comprise applying a treatment light beam in a predetermined wavelength or wavelength range corresponding to gold (yellow to orange), red, or at least part of both the gold and red visible light wavelength ranges to at least a portion of an eye. The treatment light beam may be applied to an entire eye. In some embodiments, the selected treatment area is irradiated with light in the selected gold and/or red wavelength range at a predetermined dose for a selected time period as a primary treatment in order to treat various eye conditions and reduce eye pain or discomfort, or help to promote eye wound healing following injury or surgery, or as a secondary treatment to augment eye treatment using light in different phototherapy treatment ranges.
