Systems, methods, and devices for promoting eyelash hair growth includes an energy transducer, positionable proximate the eyelid, configured to provide light energy to a user's eyelids at an output wavelength suitable for stimulating eyelash hair growth, and a scleral shield, positionable inside of the eyelid, to protect the eye from the light energy. The device may be powered by an internal power source, such as a rechargeable battery or disposable batteries, or by an external power source, such as a plug used in connection with an AC outlet. In use, the eyelid is positioned between the energy transducer and the scleral shield, and the light energy from the energy transducer is applied to the eyelash region of the eyelid to promote eyelash hair growth.
