The primary care clinician is not familiar with the treatment modality recommended such as PUVA, phototherapy, or immunosuppressive medications.

What is phototherapy?

Scientific medicine has approved of the use of light therapy, often known as phototherapy or heliotherapy, to cure a variety of illnesses. Exposure to particular interior artificial light sources or outdoor daylight is included.

The treatment recommendation for unipolar depression specifically suggests light therapy for depression that has a seasonal pattern (seasonal affective disorder).

There is inconclusive evidence to support its use in the treatment of non-seasonally dependent depressive disorders. The second type of light therapy, known as UV light therapy, is used to treat skin conditions such neurodermatitis, psoriasis, acne vulgaris, eczema, and neonatal jaundice.

To cure vitamin D deficiency, exposure to photons (light) at particular narrowband UVB wavelengths enables the body to generate vitamin D.
