Understanding LLLT / Red Light
About LLLT / Red Light
Low-Level Light Therapy (LLLT) uses specific wavelengths of light (Red or Blue) to energize cells and reduce inflammation. For dry eye, the heat and light stimulate the meibomian glands and eyelids, helping to melt oil blockages and reduce redness. It is also highly effective for treating styes (chalazions) without surgery.
