Q

Can an indiviual have normal vision and glaucoma?

A

yes, may have 20/20 but will have poor diagnostic field

36
Q

Why does glaucoma get caught late in the game?

A

because by the time people come in for glaucoma, 60% of ganglion are lost

What happens to nueral elements in retina as we move anteriorly?

A

decline to single layer covering ciliary body

57
Q

What seperates retina from vitreous humor?

A

Inner limiting membrane–keeps retina packed in

58
Q

if you have a thick ganglion cell layer, where are you located in the eye?

A

more posteriorly and closer to fovea, decreaess as we move peripherally or anteriorly

59
Q

What are two clues on location of histology of location, central or peripheral, of eye?
