Summary

This study tests whether combining gentle brain stimulation with visual exercises can improve vision and daily function in people with glaucoma who have lost some side vision. About 56 adults with open-angle glaucoma will receive both the active treatment and a placebo in random order, with each session followed by tests of vision and brain activity. The goal is to see if this approach can ease symptoms and enhance quality of life, not to cure the disease.
