Mindfulness therapy for visual snow syndrome
Part of Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This trial tests if mindfulness-based cognitive therapy (MBCT) can help people with visual snow syndrome. It aims to improve symptoms and quality of life.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.

- You have been diagnosed with visual snow syndrome by a neurologist or eye doctor.
- You are between 16 and 80 years old.
- You have not already completed MBCT or a similar mindfulness program.
- You are not currently experiencing severe depression or a psychotic episode.
- You can speak and understand English well enough to take part in group discussions.

This study uses visual tests and brain scans to understand how the brain processes vision in people with visual snow syndrome compared to those without. It may help researchers learn more about what causes this condition.
This study uses a technique called Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation (TMS), which uses magnetic pulses to gently stimulate parts of your brain, to explore how people with visual snow syndrome, color blindness, or normal vision perceive light patterns. This may help understand why visual snow happens and how to treat it.
This study uses a very strong MRI brain scanner to better understand conditions like migraine, visual snow, or epilepsy that don’t fully respond to treatment. You may be able to join if you meet specific diagnosis and safety requirements for the scanner.
This study is testing whether mindfulness-based stress reduction can help people with central serous chorioretinopathy (CSCR), a condition causing fluid buildup under the retina. If you have active CSCR that started recently, you might be eligible.
This study tests a new approach using non-invasive brain and visual stimulation to improve vision in people with glaucoma. If you have mild to moderate glaucoma and stable vision, this trial may help see if your eyesight can get better.
This study uses brain stimulation and brain imaging (MRI) along with vision tests to understand how the brain supports seeing. You might be eligible if you are a healthy adult and can safely complete MRI and stimulation tasks.
