Abstract: Transcorneal electrical stimulation (TES) is an accepted treatment modality in retinitis pigmentosa (RP) [1]. Electrical stimulaton may be used to induce neuroprotective growth factors in the retina. The main aim of TES has been declared as to stabilize vision and to stop visual field (VF) deteriorization in this progressive disease [2]. The results of some multicenter studies have been encouraging and patients have been instructed to use TES themselves at their home settings [3]. This treatment modality is continued for about a year and patients are periodically examined by their physicians.
