How Is Syntonics Different from Other Light Therapies? Learn About This Non-Invasive Treatment

If you've been struggling with vision issues, headaches, or difficulties with focus and concentration, you might have come across different types of light therapies as potential treatments. But not all light therapies are the same. Here at Evolutionary Eye Care, we offer Syntonics, a unique, non-invasive form of light therapy that has been transforming lives for years.

What Is Syntonics?

Syntonics, also known as optometric phototherapy, is a specialized light therapy used to treat a range of vision problems, including:

• Struggles with depth perception

• Difficulties focusing, especially after a concussion or head trauma

• Binocular vision disorders

• Visual processing issues that affect reading and learning

• Light sensitivity and chronic headaches

Syntonics uses specific wavelengths of light to stimulate the autonomic nervous system, helping to restore balance between the sympathetic (fight-or-flight) and parasympathetic (rest-and-digest) systems.

How Is Syntonics Different from Other Light Therapies?

Many people hear "light therapy" and immediately think of treatments for seasonal affective disorder (SAD) or LED skincare therapies. While those treatments use light to affect mood or skin health, Syntonics is vision-focused and works at a much deeper level.

• Targets the Brain and Visual Pathways: Syntonics directly affects the visual processing centers in the brain. This means it’s not just about improving vision but also enhancing cognitive function and emotional balance.

• Highly Personalized Treatment: Every patient’s Syntonics therapy is customized based on their unique visual challenges. During your visit to our Sugar Land office, we carefully evaluate your pupillary response and other neurological factors to determine the best light wavelengths for you.

• Proven Benefits for Post-Concussion and Brain Injuries: If you've suffered a concussion, traumatic brain injury (TBI), or stroke, traditional vision therapies alone may not be enough. Syntonics helps retrain the brain’s visual system and reduce symptoms like dizziness, double vision, and headaches.

• Non-Invasive & Relaxing: Unlike more aggressive treatments that require surgery or medication, Syntonics is completely non-invasive. Most patients find the sessions relaxing, as they simply wear specialized tinted glasses while exposed to therapeutic light for a few minutes at a time.

Who Can Benefit from Syntonics?

Many people in Sugar Land and the surrounding areas have found relief through Syntonics. If you or your child are experiencing:

• Struggles with focus or attention

• Difficulty reading for long periods

• Sensitivity to bright lights

• Trouble tracking objects or eye strain

• Post-concussion vision issues

Syntonics might be the missing piece to your vision treatment plan.
