Summary

The purpose of the present study is to carry out a trial to evaluate the clinical efficacy of the NeuroVision Low Myopia Treatment.

The specific questions to be answered are:

1. Is there an improvement in vision following the treatment without bringing about a change in the subject's prescription for glasses?
2. Can any treatment effect be seen at 6 months and 12 months after the termination of the treatment?

DEVICE

NeuroVision's NVC treatment for Low Myopia

NeuroVision's NVC vision correction technology is a method in the treatment of low myopia as the technology is directed at specific neuronal interactions at the level of the visual cortex (area responsible for vision in the brain). The subject will be exposed to a set of visual stimulations (pattern with black and white lines) and visual threshold level will be obtained. The subject will look at these patterns on a computer. The treatment will be applied in successive 30-40 minute sessions, administered 2-3 times a week, for a total of 40 sessions. Every 5 sessions, subject's visual performance (visual acuity and CSF) will be tested in order to continuously monitor a subject's progress.
