Trabecular Meshwork Motion Profile from Pulsatile Pressure Transients: A New Platform to Simulate Transitory Responses in Humans and Nonhuman Primates

Chen Xin et al.

Summary: This study introduces a new laboratory platform to investigate the motion responses of trabecular meshwork (TM) to ocular transients. The findings suggest that abnormal TM motion is a leading cause of glaucoma and that the platform permits quantitation of TM motion responses to designed pulse transients. The study's implications include improved interpretation of new TM motion measurements in clinic and a better understanding of glaucoma mechanisms and management.

Modeling the biomechanics of the conventional aqueous outflow pathway microstructure in the human eye

Alireza Karimi et al.

Summary: Intraocular pressure is determined by the resistance of aqueous humor outflow, which is influenced by the mechanical properties of trabecular meshwork, Schlemm's canal inner wall, and juxtacanalicular connective tissue. Understanding the biomechanical interactions of aqueous humor with outflow tissues is crucial for regulating outflow resistance and fluid dynamics in the eye.

Biomechanics of human trabecular meshwork in healthy and glaucoma eyes via dynamic Schlemm's canal pressurization

Alireza Karimi et al.

Summary: The stiffness of the trabecular meshwork is significantly higher in glaucoma eyes compared to healthy eyes, indicating differences in viscoelastic mechanical behavior. These findings shed light on the mechanical property distinctions in the outflow pathway of healthy and glaucomatous eyes under dynamic loading, potentially serving as a new biomarker for early diagnosis of glaucoma.

Normal and glaucomatous outflow regulation

Ted S. Acott et al.

Summary: Glaucoma, a complex eye disease, involves the key structures of trabecular meshwork and Schlemm's canal inner wall endothelium in regulating intraocular pressure. Glaucomatous eyes demonstrate distinctive molecular differences in aqueous outflow regions, with a loss of IOP homeostatic response leading to pathological changes. The ongoing research into outflow resistance and its regulation mechanisms has the potential to enhance our understanding of IOP regulation and glaucoma pathophysiology.

Summary: Glaucoma is a leading cause of blindness worldwide, characterized by irreversible damage to the retinal ganglion cell axons. Limited knowledge exists on the biomechanics of the lamina cribrosa (LC) microstructure. Finite element modeling of the LC microstructure and neural tissues in human eyes showed that the microstructural models provided better estimates of stress and strain distribution compared to continuum models.
