Onychomycosis is a persistent fungal nail infection affecting millions, with severe cases often resistant to treatment. This study tested a novel light therapy. Among 165 mostly severely infected nails treated, 73% showed at least a 3-mm increase in clear nail or total clearance and no reported side effects, demonstrating the therapy’s safety and effectiveness even in the most challenging cases.
