Can Red Light Therapy Help with Age-Related Vision Loss?
Red light therapy has been found to reduce the amount of reactive oxygen species in rods and cones, as well as improve visual function in individuals 40 years and older by reducing cholesterol deposits and reactive oxygen species in order to improve neuronal function.

Red light therapy can increase ATP while reducing reactive oxygen species, helping to prevent or reverse aging by disrupting some of the normal pathways associated with aging.

Summary
Red light therapy can increase ATP while reducing reactive oxygen species, helping to prevent or reverse aging by disrupting some of the normal pathways associated with aging. The Jeffrey Lab found that having subjects view red light of about 670 nanometers had exciting rejuvenating effects on cells.

Blue light therapy using a specific exam called Triton improves visual function in individuals aged 40 years and above.

Summary
Blue light therapy using a specific exam called Triton improves visual function in individuals aged 40 years and above. This therapy works by targeting the metabolically active cells in the retina that deteriorate with age, leading to the loss of the short-wavelength cones that respond to blue and green light.

Red and near infrared light can reduce reactive oxygen species and rescue the function of cones in the eye, allowing a reversal of the aging process of these neurons, and may reduce cholesterol deposits to improve neuronal function.
