These studies aimed to study the mechanisms of glaucomatous peripapillary scleral (PPS) remodeling by investigating IOP-induced changes in fibroblast actin-collagen alignment and nuclear morphology in mouse PPS. Cryosections from the optic nerve head...
UNLABELLED: Early detection of glaucoma represents a vital factor in securing vision while the disease retains its position as one of the central causes of blindness worldwide. The current glaucoma screening strategies with expert interpretation depe...

Glaucoma is a progressive eye condition caused by high intraocular fluid pressure, damaging the optic nerve, leading to gradual, irreversible vision loss, often without noticeable symptoms. Subtle signs like mild eye redness, slightly blurred vision,...
. This study is focused on creating an effective glaucoma detection system employing a Hybrid Centric Convolutional Neural Network (HCCNN) model. By using Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO), classification accuracy is increased and computing complexit...
Automated identification of retinal landmarks, particularly the fovea is crucial for diagnosing diabetic retinopathy and other ocular diseases. But accurate identification is challenging due to varying contrast, color irregularities, anatomical struc...
Vasculature morphology and hierarchy are essential for blood perfusion. Human retinal circulation is an intricate vascular system emerging and remerging at the optic nerve head (ONH). Tracing retinal vascular branching from ONH can allow detailed mor...
Glaucoma, an optic nerve disease resulting in blindness if left untreated, is a difficult condition in healthcare in view of its diagnostic difficulties. Past approaches are based on assessment of the fundus images and the size of the cup and the dis...
Glaucoma detection from fundus images often relies on biomarkers such as the Cup-to-Disc Ratio (CDR) and Rim-to-Disc Ratio (RDR). However, precise segmentation of the optic cup and disc is challenging due to low-contrast boundaries and the interferen...
