IOP-induced ONH strains negatively tied to retinal sensitivity in glaucoma patients
Optic nerve head (ONH) strains under intraocular pressure (IOP) show a negative association with retinal sensitivity in patients with open-angle glaucoma, according to a study. In particular, high-tension glaucoma (HTG) patients with higher ONH strains are more likely to show lower retinal sensitivities.
