摘要:
An ophthalmic treatment method for inhibiting death of retinal constitutive cells of an eye by stimulating the cells includes a first step of placing a positive electrode and a negative electrode in such positions outside the eye that the electrodes provide electrical stimulation to the cells, at least one of the electrodes being placed on one of a cornea and sclera of the eye; and a second step of generating an electrical stimulation pulse having an electric current set at 20 μA or more but not exceeding 300 μA from each placed electrode.

An ophthalmic treatment apparatus includes an electrode which is set on a place to apply electrical stimulation to cells constituting a retina; and an electrical stimulation pulse generator which is connected to the electrode, for generating, from the electrode, a predetermined electrical stimulation pulse whose electric current is set at 20 μA or more but not exceeding 300 μA.
