Zapping the brain to fight visual dementia

NCT ID NCT07191327

Summary

This study is testing whether gentle electrical brain stimulation can help improve vision and thinking problems in people with posterior cortical atrophy, a rare form of dementia that primarily affects vision. Fifty participants will receive either real or fake stimulation sessions over four days, with the option to continue real treatment for up to six months. Researchers will use brain scans, eye tracking, and questionnaires to see if the treatment helps strengthen brain connections and improve daily visual tasks.
