| Research Abstract |
The degree of visual field defect in glaucomatous patients correlated with postural fluctuation of intraocular pressure. Optimal conditions for multi-channel, multifocal visual evoked potential (mfVEP) recordings were established. Visual dysfunction in glaucomatous damages was objectively detected by quantitative analysis of mfVEP global index we have developed. We found that astrocytes in the optic nerve and retinal ganglion cells express aquaporin 9 water channel and that glaucoma and optic nerve crush injuries decrease it.
