    You mention companies that sell the red-light therapy, also sell goggles to protect your eyes. Isn’t the red light *supposed* to go to the eyes? Can you link to the companies that sell the light/goggles? Thanks!

      Hey Ben, RLT is normally directed at the skin. In fact, most people report improvement in skin quality as the number one benefit!

      It seems as though the goggles are typically only a precautionary step and are not necessary. They are for people who are sensitive to the lights as they can be bright. As far as devices go, I haven’t used them but this is a reputable device/company as is Joov:
