Strong association of glaucoma with atherosclerosis
Abstract Carbonic anhydrases (CAs) catalyze the synthesis of HCO3 - from H2O and CO2. The dysfunction of CAs leads to aqueous humor secretion and high intraocular pressure to cause glaucoma pathogenesis. Methazolamide (MTZ), a CA inhibitor, can effectively treat glaucoma by reducing aqueous humor se...
