Abstract:
(Pasted by Max from full-text): This review examines glaucoma as a disease of early cellular senescence. There is ample evidence for this position, for both the anterior and the posterior ocular segments. The existing evidence to support this view of glaucoma and avenues to treatment, both existing and new, will be examined in the light of glaucoma pathophysiology as a premature aging process.
