Today we spend almost 90% of our time indoors, without natural light. This is highly risky for our health and is the known cause of multiple diseases. Light is essential to keep healthy and to prevent diseases.
Light is:
The successful use of light in medicine has a long history. Ancient civilizations, the Greeks, the Egyptians and the Arabs, understood the importance of light and its healing effects on our health.
"Heliotherapy" was the first natural Light Therapy successfully used as an effective medical treatment for preventing & healing various medical conditions. Hippocrates, a Greek scientist, the father of modern medicine (460BC-370BC) used to say: "Vis medicatrix naturae" - Honor the healing power of nature.
Dr. Niels Ryberg Finsen
In 1893, the Danish physician Niels Ryberg Finsen developed one of the first devices capable of producing technically synthesized "sunlight". Technically synthesized light has clear advantages: its intensity and emitted light spectrum are controllable. From 1895 to 1903, he treated more than 950 patients with lupus vulgaris (tuberculosis of the skin) using filtered, technically synthesized "sunlight".
In 1903 he was awarded the Nobel Prize in Medicine for his research in light therapy and his exceptional therapeutic achievements. Dr. Finsen therefore is considered the founder of modern light therapy.

Richard E. Smalley
The Nobel Prize in chemistry was awarded in 1996 to Sir Harold W. Kroto, Robert F. Curl and Richard E. Smalley for discovering C60 as a Fibonacci structure – icosahedral entity. Based on this discovery the team of bioengineers and scientist at BIOPTRON® invented and patented the C60 based BIOPTRON Hyperlight Optics® which acts as a nanophotonic generator of Quantum Hyperlight. The influence of BIOPTRON® Hyperlight is the quantum phenomenon whereby the information is able to modify the matter.

The Nobel Prize in physiology or medicine in 1998 was awarded to Robert F. Furchgott, Louis J. Ignarro and Ferid Murad “for their discoveries of nitric oxide as a signaling molecule in the cardiovascular system”. (The near infrared part of the BIOPTRON® Quantum Hyperlight spectrum stimulates the local production of nitric oxide, which improves vasodilatation in blood vessels, playing an important role in the protection of cardiovascular diseases).

Dan Shechtman
The Nobel Prize in chemistry in 2011 was awarded to Dan Shechtman for discovering a periodic icosahedral phase transition process and structures (quasicrystals) by Fibonacci’s Law (quasicrystals are also known as Fibonacci crystals, since they naturally arrange according to the Golden Ratio, the same spatial arrangement present in photons of Hyperpolarized Light).

The Nobel Prize in physiology in 2017 was awarded to Jeffrey C. Hall, Michael Rosbash and Michael W. Young for their discoveries of molecular mechanisms that control the circadian rhythm. BIOPTRON® Hyperlight is medically certified for Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD), as it provides the necessary amount of illuminance (lux) to regulate the circadian rhythm for the patients with SAD.
