Dr. Sabel. Thank you very much for your insightful talk. Do you know if stimulation with alternating microcurrent work for bloodflow related neurological diseases other than glaucoma? What is the recommended technique application in glaucoma, and if there is anyway to acquire the equipment? Best wishes.

Can you utilize lasers that can be set to alternative their wavelength and adjust the HZ setting to match your ACS equipment?
