Combined Non-Invasive Brain and Visual Stimulation for Vision Improvement

Sponsor: The Hong Kong Polytechnic University

View on ClinicalTrials.gov

Summary

Glaucoma is a complex disease that can result in progressive vision loss. It is the second leading cause of blindness, accounting for 23% of permanent blindness in Hong Kong. There are no treatments that restore vision lost to glaucoma. This study will examine the effect of transcranial direct current stimulation (NIBS) on improving quality of life, visual function and functional performance in patients with peripheral field loss due to glaucoma.

Official title: Evaluation of Combined Non-invasive Brain Stimulation (NIBS) and Visual Tetanic Stimulation (VTS) for Vision Enhancement: A Randomized, Single-blind, Cross-over Trial
