Global assessment of arteriolar, venular and capillary changes in normal tension glaucoma
Abstract
Microcirculatory insufficiency has been hypothesized in glaucoma pathogenesis. There is a scarcity of data to comprehensively examine the changes in retinal microvasculature and its role in normal tension glaucoma (NTG). We conducted a cross-sectional case–control study and included 168 eyes from 100 NTG patients and 68 healthy subjects.
