The authors have over 30 years experience of treatment with lasers, more than 25 of which have been with low reactive-level laser therapy. (LLLT) Based on our experience, we have continuously attempted to develop new treatments and broaden the clinical application of lasers. Many patients receiving LLLT for an entity other than sight problems have spontaneously described a sense of increased visual acuity following their treatment, and the present study was designed to see if there was in fact, any effect of LLLT on vision. Six healthy adult subjects aged 56∼68 years old, were treated with LLLT according to the proximal priority theory (PPT). The subjects’ close range, far range visual acuity and astigmatism were examined prior to, one hour after and 24 hours after LLLT. The laser hardware used in this experiment was the OhLase HT2001 (Japan Medical Laser Laboratory, Tokyo, Japan) and the Screenoscope (Topcon, Tokyo, Japan). A high rate of improvement was seen for both close range and far range visual acuity but a particularly noteworthy improvement rate of 91.7% was seen at examination for far sightedness immediately after LLLT. LLLT in the field of ophthalmology is promising and further controlled studies carried out by ophthalmologic specialists in larger patient groups may yield new indications for LLLT in this field.
