Electrical Stimulation of the Optic Nerve in Patients With Glaucoma.

"Eyetronic Nextwave is a neurostimulation device that stimulates the optic nerve non-invasively using transcranial alternating current stimulation delivered through goggles in patients presenting with glaucoma.~Eyetronic is approved in Europe for the treatment of glaucoma to possibly delay progression of visual field (VF) loss for at least 12 months. The indication for use in Europe includes all patients suffering from neuropathies of the optic nerve resulting in loss of VF. Two studies conducted in Europe have demonstrated improvement in visual fields following 10-days of optic nerve stimulation treatment with this device. In the current study, the Eyetronic system will be used to treat only those individuals who have visual field loss from glaucoma."
