Zusammenfassung

Purpose: Initial observations in clinical settings showed that electrical stimulation using non-invasive, repetitive transcranial alternating current stimulation (rtACS) applied transorbitally may improve visual functions in patients with visual impairments due to optic neuropathy. However, these data were not collected under strict experimental (control) conditions and have not been published internationally. Because of the potential significance of the mentioned observations, we initiated a single centre, prospective placebo-controlled, clinical study to evaluate the efficacy of rtACS in patients with optic ne…
