The underlying pathogenesis of glaucoma is attributed to retinal ganglion cell death due to elevated level of intraocular pressure. The intraocular pressure is determined by the balance between secretion of aqueous humor by the ciliary body and its drainage through the two pathways i.e. the trabecular meshwork and uveoscleral outflow pathway.
