Acute ocular hypertension disrupts barrier integrity and pump function in rat corneal endothelial cells

Abstract Acute ocular hypertension (AOH) frequently compromises corneal endothelial cell (CEC) function in clinical practice. This type of stress induces corneal oedema and a decrease in the corneal endothelial cell density (ECD). The anterior chamber of the right eye of Sprague-Dawley rats was irri...
