“…Interestingly, these observations are in keeping with recent findings supporting the hypothesis that glaucoma could be considered to be a neurodegenerative disorder involving the central nervous system (CNS) [ 4 , 11 , 12 , 13 , 14 , 15 ]. In this context, several studies have highlighted changes in grey matter (GM) [ 16 , 17 ], functional connectivity [ 14 , 18 , 19 , 20 ], and white matter (WM) [ 14 , 15 , 20 , 21 ] in glaucoma patients as compared with controls. For example, Frezzotti et al [ 14 ] found higher axial diffusivity (AD) in the middle cerebellar peduncle, corticospinal tract (CST), anterior thalamic radiation (ATR), and superior longitudinal fascicle (SLF) in primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) patients relative to controls.…”
