The Contribution of Sulfated Glycosaminoglycans to the Inflation Response of the Human Optic Nerve Head

PURPOSE: In this study, we measured the effect of the removal of sulfated glycosaminoglycans (sGAGs) on the pressure-induced strains of the human lamina cribrosa (LC). METHODS: We applied an ex vivo inflation method to measure the three-dimensional (3D) deformation response of six human LCs to press...
