The Potential of Visible and Far-Red to Near-Infrared Light in Glaucoma Neuroprotection

The Potential of Visible and Far-Red to Near-Infrared Light in Glaucoma Neuroprotection

Alternative treatment strategies are necessary to reduce the severity of glaucoma, a group of eye conditions that progressively damage the optic nerve and impair vision. The aim of this review is to gain insight into potentially exploitable molecular mechanisms to slow down the death of retinal gang...
