Understanding Trabecular Meshwork Physiology: A Key to the Control of Intraocular Pressure?

Abstract

The trabecular meshwork is a tissue located in the anterior chamber angle of the eye, and it is a crucial determinant of intraocular pressure values because of its resistance to the evacuation of aqueous humor from the eye. Here we bring together classical and recent discoveries on the function of the trabecular meshwork, keys to understanding eye pathophysiology.
