Researchers at the University of Maryland School of Medicine (UMSOM) have for the first time identified stem cells in the region of the optic nerve, which transmits signals from the eye to the brain.

The size of the optic-nerve head (optic disc) and the physiological cup depend on the size of the scleral canal (occupied by a meshlike structure called the lamina cribrosa).

Damage to the optic nerve can lead to irreversible blindness. A newly investigated regeneration factor could change that, UConn researchers report in the May 2024 issue of Experimental Neurology.

The optic nerve is the nerve that transmits visual information from the retina to the brain. The optic nerve is composed of retinal ganglion cell axons and support cells. It leaves the orbit (eye ...

Because the corneal stroma, corneal endothelium, optic nerve lamina cribrosa, and meningeal sheath all differentiate from the neural crest, they may be embryologically related to each other. 1.

Pituitary tumors can compress the optic nerve, leading to visual symptoms. Pituitary tumors are mostly benign (noncancerous), but due to their location, they can have significant effects on ...
