Genetic rodent models of glaucoma in representing disease phenotype and insights into the pathogenesis.

Abstract excerpt

With vast amount of information revealed by human studies about genetic correlations with glaucoma, use of these models is relevant and required. In this review, we discuss the glaucoma endophenotypes and importance of their representation in an experimental animal model. Mice and rats are the most popular animal species used as genetic models...
