Paraorbital-Occipital Alternating Current Stimulation Therapy for Optic Neuropathy (MCT_optnerve)

Optic Nerve Diseases Clinical Trial

Official title:
Multicenter Study of Paraorbital-Occipital Alternating Current Stimulation Therapy in Patients With Optic Neuropathy

Clinical Trial Summary

Aim is to validate that non-invasive brain stimulation can increase cortical excitability in the visual system. The investigators assess if transcranial alternating current stimulation (tACS) can improve visual field size in patients with optic nerve damage. Hypothesis: tACS would improve visual functions within the defective visual field (primary outcome measure).

Clinical Trial Description

In addition, the correlation between the brain-derived neurotrophic factor (BDNF) or other plasticity markers are correlated to the improvement of the visual field after stimulation. ;
