The results of many studies in a variety of species have significantly advanced our
understanding of the role of visual experience and the mechanisms of postnatal eye growth …

Purpose Despite extensive research, mechanisms regulating postnatal eye growth and
those responsible for ametropias are poorly understood. With the marked recent increases …

Glaucoma, the second most common cause of blindness, is characterized by a progressive
loss of retinal ganglion cells and their axons, with a concomitant loss of the visual field …

The retinal circadian system represents a unique structure. It contains a complete circadian
system and thus the retina represents an ideal model to study fundamental questions of how …

Patients with glaucoma can suffer progressive vision loss, even in the face of what appears
to be excellent intraocular pressure (IOP) control. Some of this may be secondary to non …

purpose. To determine the chronology of optic nerve head and retinal responses to elevated
intraocular pressure (IOP). methods. After 1 to 39 days of unilaterally elevated IOP …

purpose. The goal of this study was to identify altered patterns of retinal mRNA expression
after experimental elevation of intraocular pressure (IOP) in a rat glaucoma model. methods …

Glaucoma is a chronic and progressive optic nerve neuropathy involving the death of retinal
ganglion cells (RGCs). Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is considered to be the major risk …

Glaucoma is a progressive neurodegenerative disease that frequently results in irreversible
blindness. Glaucoma causes death of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons in the …

Background Little is known about genetic factors affecting intraocular pressure (IOP) in mice
and other mammals. The purpose of this study was to determine the IOPs of genetically …
