Study Summary

Transcorneal Electrical Stimulation (TES) using the "OkuStim®" device delivers electrical impulses to damaged and/or diseased photoreceptor cells. This electric stimulation of the retina may help to preserve visual acuity and/or the visual field.

Primary Outcome

The primary outcomes are change in high-contrast LogMar VA from baseline (week 1) to initial post treatment (week 8). Participants read letters from a chart and receive 1 point for each letter correctly identified. Scores are converted to logMAR scale and analyzed for changes in visual acuity. Improvement in visual acuity is defined as a decrease in logMAR of 0.2 or more.
