Retrolaminar Demyelination of Structurally Intact Axons in Nonhuman Primate Experimental Glaucoma.

Nonhuman primate glaucoma studies found structurally intact optic nerve axons show significant demyelination. This suggests a novel mechanism of nerve damage in early/moderate glaucoma, impacting vision beyond axon loss.
