HELIOS Advanced: Human Oocyte Illumination to Enhance Development

Oocytes need a lot of energy to complete meiosis and fertilize successfully. As women get older, the "power plants" of the cells (called mitochondria) don't work as well. This makes it harder for eggs and embryos to develop normally. One possible way to help is with a gentle light treatment called photobiomodulation (PBM). This uses a special type of red light that boosts energy production in cells and helps them stay healthy. This study will test whether adding this light treatment during in vitro fertilization (IVF) can improve embryo growth and pregnancy outcomes.
