Summary

The goal of this observational study is to evaluate electrical stimulation of the optic nerve with the Eyetronic Nextwave System device as a possible treatment for glaucoma. The main question it aims to answer is: Could this therapy be an option to counteract the loss of visual field seen in glaucoma and thus delay the progression of the disease? Participants will have approximately 14-18 study visits during 12 months including 10 visits for the electrical stimulation treatment. The treatment involves electrically stimulating the optic nerve by an external approach via the facial skin.
