Noninvasive brain stimulation for eye focusing trouble
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study tests a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment to improve symptoms of convergence insufficiency, a condition that makes near vision tasks like reading harder. You may be randomly assigned to the study treatment or a comparison condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You have good vision in each eye (better than 20/25 with the best correction)
- Your eye alignment issue is worse up close than far away (specific measurements must fit)
- Near your eyes do not work together well enough during a focused eye test (must meet the study’s cutoff)
- Your convergence insufficiency symptom questionnaire score meets the study threshold for your age
- You had an eye exam with pupil dilation within the last 12 months
- You can agree to participate and be randomly assigned
Quick eligibility check

Other trials that look related to this one.
This study looks at how convergence insufficiency (a problem where your eyes don't work together when looking at things close up) develops after a concussion, and tests whether a special vision training program (vision therapy) can improve it. If it works, it might help you recover your visual comfort and reduce symptoms like eyestrain and headaches.
This trial tests whether a special type of eye exercise can help people with convergence insufficiency, a condition where your eyes struggle to work together when looking at close objects. Participating could improve your eye coordination and reduce symptoms like eyestrain or double vision.
This study tests a home-based eye exercise program for people with mild traumatic brain injury who have ongoing vision problems like blurring or trouble focusing. It aims to help your eyes work together better and reduce symptoms.
This trial tests if a 12-week home-based vision therapy program can improve double vision and reading issues in veterans with traumatic brain injury. It targets a specific problem called convergence insufficiency, where the eyes don't work together when looking at close objects.
This trial tests a gentle, noninvasive brain stimulation technique (called TMS) to see if it can improve vision in adults with lazy eye. It is a noninvasive approach that does not involve surgery or drugs.
This study compares two non-invasive treatments for eye focusing problems: vision exercises combined with gentle electrical brain stimulation versus vision exercises alone. It aims to see if adding brain stimulation improves the ability to focus the eyes better than exercises alone.
