Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

Non-atopic dermatitis (NAD) or eczema is a common inflammatory condition; potentially debilitating that can compromise quality of life. It is usually seen in childhood, but can onset within or persist into adulthood.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Polarized ultraviolet-free polychromatic light is used as therapeutic option for the treatment of wound healing and dermatological conditions.

40 male patients who had atopic dermatitis in the chronic stage, they were complaining from itching, inflammation and skin thickness in the arm, wrist, hand and leg will participate in this study.
