This project aims to study the mechanisms underlying glaucoma, the second leading cause of vision loss. Specifically it will provide proof for the idea that a person can develop vision loss without having high eye pressure, if their blood pressure cannot provide enough supply to the eye. It will achieve this by combining expertise from several disciplines; physiology, blood pressure control, anatomy and biochemistry. This project will help to improve glaucoma detection, monitoring and treatment.

该项目旨在研究青光眼的发病机制，青光眼是导致视力丧失的第二大原因。具体来说，它将为这样一种观点提供证据：如果一个人的血压不能为眼睛提供足够的供应，那么即使没有高眼压，也会出现视力丧失。它将通过结合几个学科的专业知识来实现这一目标；生理学，血压控制，解剖学和生物化学。该项目将有助于提高青光眼的检测、监测和治疗水平。
