ABSTRACT
@#Retinal diseases and optic nerve injury blocked visual signal transduction from retinal neurons to visual cortex, which would cause significant influence on patients' visual function and life quality. In clinic, glaucoma, traumatic optic neuropathy, and retinitis pigmentosa and so on are accompanied with degeneration of retinal neurons or optic nerve. However, efficient neuro-protective treatment is limited. Currently, studies suggested neuro-protective and regenerative effect of electrical stimulation treatment on retinal neurons and optic nerves. In this study, we reviewed the application of electrical stimulation in ophthalmology and summarized the possible mechanism, aiming to promote the development of electrical stimulation in the study and treatment of eye diseases.
