Summary

This study is testing whether a home-based treatment using gentle electrical stimulation around the eye can help improve vision in people with optic nerve damage. Researchers will enroll 70 adults with optic neuropathy to use the device every other day for 8 weeks. The goal is to see if this stimulation can slow vision loss, improve visual function, and help people maintain their independence.
