Lesions in the posterior visual pathway promote trans-synaptic degeneration of retinal ganglion cells.
OBJECTIVE: Retrograde trans-synaptic degeneration of retinal ganglion cell layer (GCL) has been proposed as one of the mechanisms contributing to permanent disability after visual pathway damage. We set out to test this mechanism taking advantage of the new methods for imaging the macula with high r...
