Abstract
Disorders of the eye can be treated by photobiomodulation therapy (PBMT) delivered by a PBMT device. The PBMT device can be configured for placement directly over a patient's eye socket to deliver light into the patient's eye regardless of a position of the patient's eye, while preventing blue light from entering the patient's eye (e.g., due to a filter within the PBMT device and/or an opacity of the housing of the PBMT device). The PBMT device can be powered by a controller.
