Summary
This paper discusses the neurodegenerative disease glaucoma, its connection to other neurodegenerative disorders, and potential strategies for neuroprotection in glaucoma, focusing on pharmacologic strategies to minimize retinal ganglion cell damage.
Categories
Dementia: The paper discusses the connection between glaucoma and dementia, specifically Alzheimer's disease, suggesting a common pathogenesis between the diseases.
Alzheimer's disease: The paper explores the link between Alzheimer's disease and glaucoma, suggesting that Alzheimer's patients may be more vulnerable to develop glaucoma.
Cognitive function and memory: The paper discusses the impact of glaucoma on cognitive function and memory, as it is a neurodegenerative disorder that affects the central nervous system.
Eye health: The paper focuses on glaucoma, a disease that specifically affects retinal ganglion cells in the eye, and discusses strategies for neuroprotection in glaucoma.
Aging: The paper discusses glaucoma, a disease that is often associated with aging, and its connection to other neurodegenerative disorders that are also associated with aging, such as Alzheimer's disease.
