Antioxidant Status and Oxidative Stress in Primary Open Angle Glaucoma and Pseudoexfoliative Glaucoma

Abstract

The findings of the present study are potentially of significance and add to the growing body of evidence for oxidative stress in POAG and PEG. Decreased antioxidant defense and increased oxidative stress system may play an important role in the pathogenesis of POAG and PEG.
