    Abstract:

    Gliomas of the optic nerve are rare, comprising only 1% of intracranial neoplasms in adults and 5% in children. This is the first recorded case of a ganglioglioma of the optic nerve. A 2-year-old White boy presented with a convergent squint and blindness of the left eye. At operation a pale, firm, fusiform swelling was found. The cytological and histopathological features are described.

    Glaucoma: Overview

    Glaucoma is an eye condition characterized by increased intraocular pressure that damages the retina and optic nerve, leading to irreversible blindness if left untreated. The human eye has various components, including the cornea, iris, pupil, lens, and optic nerve. Aqueous humor is secreted by the epithelium of the ciliary body in the posterior chamber and flows through the trabecular meshwork and canal of Schlemm, maintaining normal intraocular pressure. The trabecular meshwork and the canal...
