Overview
Brief Summary
This study aims to evaluate the efficacy and safety of applying pulse electrical stimulation around eyes of glaucoma patients.
Detailed Description
Duration of study period(per participant): Screening period(0-4weeks), Intervention period(16weeks) Patient needs to visit site at least 5 times(Screening, V2, V3, V4, V5). V2 can be done with screening visit. Visit 3, 4, 5 is 2weeks, 6weeks, and 16weeks after visit 2(Baseline).
