Combining brain stimulation and eye exercises for adult lazy eye
Part of Brain & nervous system, Eyes & vision clinical trials.
This study combines two non-invasive treatments for adult lazy eye (amblyopia): gentle brain stimulation and a special eye exercise using augmented reality. The goal is to improve vision in the weaker eye, offering a non-surgical option for adults with this condition.
Summary written for real people, not researchers, by Clin2.
Who can take part
- You are between 18 and 40 years old.
- You have lazy eye (amblyopia) caused by a difference in glasses prescription between your eyes.
- Your weaker eye sees noticeably worse than your stronger eye (at least 2 lines on an eye chart) and worse than 20/32.
- You have no other eye disease, neurological disease, or chronic medication use.
- You have no implanted devices (like a pacemaker or metal in your head) and no history of seizures or head trauma.

This trial tests a virtual reality (VR) therapy for adults with lazy eye (amblyopia) caused by a difference in prescription between the two eyes. It uses special glasses to train your eyes to work together, which may improve vision.
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 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 non-invasive treatment using light and brain stimulation to improve vision in adults with amblyopia (lazy eye). It may help if standard treatments haven't worked.
This trial tests if a fun, game-based training program can improve vision in children with lazy eye caused by a difference in glasses prescription between the two eyes. It is designed for children ages 4 to 7 who can participate in vision exercises.
