Abstract

A system and method for testing neuroregenerative and neuroprotective effects of specific substances on a human central nervous system. The method utilizes a standard ophthalmological procedure in which measurable but clinically insignificant damage occurs to the nerve fiber layer in a human eye. The method includes comparing the protection or regeneration of the nerve fiber layer in a patient provided with a test treatment versus a placebo treatment. Because the eyes are the only bilateral or duplicated manifestation of the human central nervous system, each human subject can act as his or her own control subject.
