U.S., July 18 -- ClinicalTrials.gov registry received information related to the study (NCT07071129) titled 'Virtual Reality for Enhancement of Vision' on July 09.
Brief Summary: This project aims to evaluate the use of Virtual Reality (VR) based visual stimulation for the treatment of blindness arising from Glaucoma and other retinal diseases or disorders of the visual system, through regeneration of axons of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) in humans.
In certain cases of blindness, such as in Glaucoma, or in certain injuries, the optic nerves behind the retina of our eyes get damaged, leading to partial blindness, mostly near the periphery of our eye. Recent research in Dr.Huberman's laboratory has identified visual stimulation as a non-in...
