Brain stimulation for adult lazy eye
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
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.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 55 years old
- You have been diagnosed with lazy eye (amblyopia) in one or both eyes
- You do not have any optic nerve disease like glaucoma or optic neuritis
- You do not have a neurological condition such as multiple sclerosis or stroke
- You do not have metal or electronic implants (like a pacemaker), and you are not taking medications that affect brain function, such as antipsychotics, antiepileptics, or opioids

This trial tests a new treatment for adults with lazy eye (amblyopia) that combines brain stimulation with a special vision game using augmented reality. The goal is to improve vision in the weaker eye.
This study tests whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS (transcranial direct current stimulation) can help children with lazy eye (amblyopia) whose vision hasn't improved with traditional patching treatments. The goal is to see if stimulating the brain can boost the weak eye's vision.
This study tests a gentle brain stimulation technique called transcranial direct current stimulation (tDCS) to see if it can help improve vision in older children and young adults with amblyopia (lazy eye).
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.
This study tests whether transcranial magnetic stimulation (a non-invasive procedure using magnetic pulses on the scalp) can help restore vision in people with severe myopia (high nearsightedness). It may offer a new option for those with advanced vision loss.
This study tests whether a noninvasive brain stimulation treatment (tRNS) plus visual training can improve visual field problems after a stroke. It may help some people regain better visual perception in the area they lost.
