IOP-induced injury to the optic nerve. (A) Cross-sections of the optic nerve of the non-implanted eye of an animal. (B,C) Cross-sections of the optic nerve of the implanted eye of animals exposed to 2 and 9 weeks of IOP elevation, respectively. Scale bars are 100 μm in light micrographs (left) and 2 μm in transmission electron micrographs (right). Arrowheads indicate several degenerating axons with disrupted membranes and axoplasms filled with cellular debris. Asterisks mark fields of gliosis.
