Cover Story: Ocular aqueous humor outflow includes the flow through the vessels residing in the perilimbal sclera (PLS). Modulating the PLS’s properties by exogenous crosslinking offers a way to expand the tissue’s range of properties to study the associated influences on the eye’s intraocular pressure (IOP). A possible hypothesis is if the interaction between the PLS and the vessels impacts IOP, then the biomechanical properties of the PLS may influence glaucoma pathogenesis. A quantitative assay was developed to exclude the trabecular meshwork as the driver of increased IOP. Using stress–strain tests of PLS tissue and whole globe perfusions, eyes with genipin-mediated crosslinking of PLS significantly increased the steady state IOP and reduced the net outflow facility. View this paper
