Shocking the brain to restore sight: new glaucoma trial launches
NCT ID NCT07486323
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tests whether a combination of gentle brain stimulation and 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 real and sham treatments in a crossover design. The goal is to see if these non-invasive methods can enhance quality of life and visual performance, not to cure the disease.
