We aimed to scrutinize the practical applications of ray of light acupuncture.Methods: A narrative review of literature and case presentations was administered.Results: Although the precise means of action remains ambiguous, the therapeutic applicability of ray of light acupuncture is broad. The empirical data idea the effectiveness of laser acupuncture in the situation of several healing disorders, including obesity, diabetes mellitus, musculoskeletal and combinational tissue diseases, ischemic stroke, vascular senility, postherpetic neuralgia, acute kidney harm after infection of blood, myopia, amblyopia, dry eye, acute lymphoblastic leukemia, never-ending kidney disease, atopic rash, opioid use disorders, autism spectrum disorder, sudden sensorineural trial loss and tinnitus, emergent short stature, and pediatric dysphagia.
