研究概览
简要总结
the general purpose of the study is to evaluate the potential beneficial effects of supplementation of a fixed combination of Citicoline 500 mg plus Homotaurine 50 mg on retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) function in subjects with glaucoma by pattern electroretinogram.
详细描述
Secondary objectives are to assess effects on visual acuity, visual field changes, Quality of Life perception (NEI VFQ25 questionnaire), and safety (Incidence of adverse events)
