Involvement of the Endocannabinoid System in Retinal Damage after High Intraocular Pressure–Induced Ischemia in Rats

Authors:

Abstract
Purpose. To evaluate whether high intraocular pressure (IOP)–induced ischemia is associated with modifications in the retinal endocannabinoid metabolism and to ascertain whether drugs that interfere with the endocannabinoid system may prevent retinal damage due to ischemic insult.
