Non-invasive Brain Stimulation for Treating Symptomatic Convergence Insufficiency — NIBSCI  

Convergence Insufficiency Clinical Trial

Official title:
A Randomized Controlled Study Using Non-invasive Brain Stimulation to Facilitate the Effectiveness of Vergence/Accommodative Therapy in Symptomatic Convergence Insufficiency

Clinical Trial Summary

The goal of this randomized controlled trial is to test the effectiveness of non-invasive brain stimulation in treating adults with symptomatic convergence insufficiency compared to vergence/accommodative therapy. The main questions it aims to answer are: 1. Can non-invasive brain stimulation shorten the treatment time of office-based vergence/accommodative therapy for convergence insufficiency? 2. Is non-invasive brain stimulation alone just as effective as office-based vergence/accommodative therapy in treating convergence insufficiency? The investigators hypothesize that non-invasive brain stimulation will shorten the treatment time from 12 weeks to 8 weeks of office-based vergence/accommodative therapy and that non-invasive brain stimulation alone would be equally effective as office-based vergence/accommodative therapy in improving symptomatic convergence insufficiency. Participants will be randomized into one of three treatment groups: 1. Non-invasive brain stimulation with office-based vergence/accommodative therapy. 2. Sham stimulation with office-based vergence/accommodative therapy. 3. Non-invasive brain stimulation only. Researchers will compare baseline measurements of near point of convergence (NPC) and positive fusional vergence (PFV) to post-treatment measurements for each group.
