glaucoma

Researchers report that new technology is improving scientific understanding of eye pressure and its role in glaucoma, a leading cause of vision loss. The development could help explain how pressure builds in the eye and support earlier diagnosis or better treatment approaches for patients at risk of the disease.

Researchers at the University of South Florida have developed new technology that improves understanding of eye pressure and its role in glaucoma, a leading cause of blindness. The work could support better diagnosis and treatment of the disease, though further details about the technology and its applications have not been widely reported.
