Segmental differences found in aqueous angiographic-determined high - and low-flow regions of human trabecular meshwork.

ABSTRACT: This work sought to compare aqueous angiographic segmental patterns with bead-based methods which directly visualize segmental trabecular meshwork (TM) tracer trapping. Additionally, segmental protein expression differences between aqueous angiographic-derived low- and high-outflow human TM regions were evaluated. Post-mortem human eyes (One Legacy and San Diego eye banks; n = 15) were perfused with fluorescent tracers (fluorescein [2.5%], indocyanine green [0.4%], and/or fluorescent microspheres). After angiographic imaging (Spectralis HRA+OCT; Heidelberg Engineering), peri-limbal low- and high-angiographic flow regions were marked. Aqueous angiographic segmental outflow patterns were similar to fluorescent microsphere TM trapping segmental patterns. TM was dissected from low- and high-fl
