Summary
This study tests a new, non-invasive light therapy (transcranial photobiomodulation) to see if it can improve brain function in children with sickle cell disease. Sickle cell can reduce oxygen to the brain, causing thinking and learning problems. The study will randomly assign 60 children (ages 8-17) to receive either active light therapy or a placebo, and measure changes in cognitive performance and brain oxygen levels.
