In plain words

What the trial is, and whether it could suit you

Retinitis pigmentosa and similar degenerative diseases of the retina lead to progressive loss of vision. TES therapy with the CE-marked OkuStim® System is a treatment approved in the EU for slowing the progression of the disease. Patients increasingly report short-term subjective improvements in vision, which have not yet been systematically investigated. This exploratory study is conducted to determine whether these subjective short-term effects can be measured, and therefore also be quantified, by objective tests.
