NCT ID NCT01517789
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study tested a new way to monitor vision during brain surgery near the optic nerve. Researchers used special goggles and anesthesia to track brain signals (visual evoked potentials) in 40 patients. The goal was to see if this method could help surgeons avoid damaging eyesight. Results will show whether this monitoring technique is reliable enough to protect vision.
