Bioenergetic neuroprotection in experimental glaucoma
Glaucoma refers to a group of ocular conditions united by a clinically characteristic intraocular pressure optic neuropathy and associated degeneration of the retinal ganglion cells (RGCs). It is a leading cause of blindness worldwide. Although the pathogenesis of the most common variant, primary …

Longitudinal Evaluation of Retinal Capillaries in Experimental Glaucoma
Purpose: Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide. The loss of radial peripapillary capillaries (RPCs) has been hypothesized to play a role in retinal ganglion cell axon degeneration in glaucoma. Previous histological work has shown that structural alterations and losses of …

Aquaporin 4 and Kir4.1 Distribution in Retinal Glial Cells of Normal Macaque Eyes and Eyes with Experimental Glaucoma
… to see how the distribution changed in eyes with experimental glaucoma. Methods: Five Rhesus macaque monkeys, ranging in age from 7 to 11 years, had experimental glaucoma induced in one eye by argon laser scarification of the drainage angle to restrict the outflow of aqueous humor from the …

Evaluating The Estimation of Neuronal Loss in Glaucoma
… widely used in the diagnosis and monitoring of glaucoma and other optic neuropathies. With spectral domain OCT (SD OCT), cross-sectional images of the retinal nerve fiber layer (RNFL), optic nerve head (ONH) and the macula can be acquired at high resolutions and quantified with excellent …
