"Light has long been known to promote wound healing, but the detailed molecular mechanisms have only recently been studied. Light's effects are more than skin deep: at long wavelengths, in the near infrared (NIR) spectrum, photons may penetrate several centimetres into the body."

" “In a rat model, NIR phototherapy is able to restore virtually normal retinal function, at least as judged by the electroretinogram,” says Eells."
