The hypothesis that it disrupts the function of retinal ganglion cell axons by increasing mechanical forces on the lamina cribrosa of the optic nerve head has received considerable experimental ...
USC researchers use 3D microscopy and genetically engineered viruses to visualize and distinguish specific retinal ganglion cell types (shown here in green) from other cells in the retina (purple).
Glaucoma is a complex and multifactorial neurodegenerative disorder primarily characterized by the progressive loss of retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) and their axons, leading to irreversible visual ...
"Adaptive optics detects and corrects for these aberrations and gives us a crystal-clear look into the eye. This gives us unprecedented access to the retinal ganglion cells, which are the sole ...
Glaucoma is a progressive eye disorder characterized by fluid ... but a cure for glaucoma remains elusive. Retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are crucial for transmitting visual signals from the ...
