An apparatus and method is provided for irradiating a portion of a patient's scalp with light. The apparatus includes a source of light including one or more wavelengths in a range of about 630 nanometers to about 1064 nanometers. The apparatus further includes an output optical element in optical communication with the source. The output optical element includes an emission surface configured to emit a light beam having a cross-sectional area greater than about 2 cmat the emission surface of the output optical element and having a time-averaged irradiance in a range of about 10 mW/cmto about 10 W/cmacross the cross-sectional area. The apparatus further includes a thermally conductive portion configured to be placed in thermal communication with the irradiated portion of the patient's scalp and to remove heat from the irradiated portion of the patient's scalp at a rate in a range of about 0.1 Watt to about 5 Watts.

Apparatus and method for irradiating a surface with light

Provided are multi-wavelength phototherapy devices, systems and methods for the treatment of a disorder or disease, including multi-wavelength low level light therapy ('PBM'), in particular to multi-wavelength PBM and other phototherapy systems and methods for improving functionality in and/or restoring functionality to a cell and/or tissue through the coordinated and targeted delivery to the cell or tissue of two or more doses of light having distinct wavelengths, wherein the two or more doses of light, when delivered in a coordinated fashion, can stimulate the activity of two or more light sensitive factors that, when activated, provide and/or enhance a desired target cell functionality. Ophthalmic phototherapy devices, systems, and treatment methods to expose an eye to selected multi-wavelengths of light to promote the healing of damaged or diseased eye tissue. The devices include a housing having an interior; an eyepiece disposed on the housing and configured and arranged for placement of an eye of the patient adjacent the eyepiece; a first light source producing a first light beam having a first therapeutic wavelength and disposed within the housing; a second light source producing a second light beam having a second therapeutic wavelength and disposed within the housing, where the second therapeutic wavelength differs from the first therapeutic wavelength by at least 25 nm.

Multi-wavelength phototherapy systems and methods for the treatment of damaged or diseased tissue

An ophthalmic phototherapy device and associated treatment methods to expose an eye to selected multi-wavelengths of light to promote the healing of damaged or diseased eye tissue. The device includes a housing having an interior; an eyepiece disposed on the housing and configured and arranged for placement of an eye of the patient adjacent the eyepiece; a first light source producing a first light beam having a first therapeutic wavelength and disposed within the housing; a second light source producing a second light beam having a second therapeutic wavelength and disposed within the housing, where the second therapeutic wavelength differs from the first therapeutic wavelength by at least 25 nm.

Devices and methods for non-invasive multi-wavelength photobiomodulation for ocular treatments

An optical assembly includes an output optical element having a thermally conductive and optically transmissive material and a thermal conduit in thermal communication with the output optical element and having at least one surface configured to be in thermal communication with at least one heat dissipating surface of a light delivery apparatus. The optical assembly further includes a coupling portion configured to be placed in at least two states. In a first state, the coupling portion is attached to the apparatus such that the at least one surface of the thermal conduit is in thermal communication with the at least one heat dissipating surface. In a second state, the coupling portion is detached from the apparatus after having been attached to the apparatus in the first state and in which the coupling portion is configured to prevent re-attachment of the coupling portion to the apparatus.
