Laser-induced chronic ocular hypertension model on SD rats

摘要

Glaucoma is one of the major causes of blindness in the world. Elevated intraocular pressure is a major risk factor. Laser photocoagulation induced ocular hypertension is one of the well established animal models. This video demonstrates how to induce ocular hypertension by Argon laser photocoagulation in rat. © JoVE 2006-2011 All Rights Reserved.
