Cupping in the Monkey Optic Nerve Transection Model Consists of Prelaminar Tissue Thinning in the Absence of Posterior Laminar Deformation

PURPOSE: To use optical coherence tomography (OCT) to test the hypothesis that optic nerve head (ONH) “cupping” in the monkey optic nerve transection (ONT) model does not include posterior laminar deformation. METHODS: Five monkeys (aged 5.5–7.8 years) underwent ONH and retinal nerve fiber layer (RN...
