What is Syntonic Therapy?


Syntonic therapy, also known as syntonics or optometric phototherapy, is a form of visual therapy that uses specific wavelengths of light to treat various visual disorders and improve overall visual health. This therapy is based on the principle that different light colors can affect the nervous and visual systems differently, influencing physical and emotional well-being.

The therapy involves exposing the eyes to specific light colors through specialized filters or lamps for prescribed periods. These wavelengths are selected based on an individual's specific visual needs and the conditions being treated. The therapy aims to balance the autonomic nervous system, which a variety of visual dysfunctions, stress, or trauma can disrupt.

Common Visual Disorders It Can Address


The conditions that syntonic therapy can address include:

  • Strabismus (crossed eyes)
  • Amblyopia (lazy eye)
  • Eye strain
  • Headaches
  • Reduced visual field size
  • Difficulties with visual processing.

It's often used as part of a comprehensive vision therapy program and can result in improvements in eye alignment, focusing, eye movement control, and binocular vision (the ability to use both eyes together effectively).
