| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
First, we measured intraocular pressure of normal rats and non-arteritic ischemic optic neuropathy rodent models(rNAION) using Tonolab tonometer. There was no significant difference between normal rats and rodent models. Second, we measured optic nerve head blood flow of normal rats and rNAION using Leser speckle flowgraphy. As a result, there was no significant difference of blood flow between right and left eyes in normal rats, and the left optic disc blood flow decreased in the acute and chronic phases of rNAION. Currently we are studying how to make a normal-tension glaucoma rat model by applying rNAION creation.
