In the study group, staining for tPA was detected in the deep retinal layers in all eyes.

The staining was deeper and more intense at 3 and 24 h than at 48 h.

There was no tPA staining in the retina of eyes injected with saline.

Massive influx of CD11+ inflammatory cells, involving the anterior and posterior chambers, was observed in the murine eyes 24 h after the IL-8 or TNF-α injections.

Cells excreted to their surroundings an extracellular net-like structure positive for NE, MPO, and H3Cit.

H3Cit staining was abolished with the DNase I treatment, indicating the presence of extracellular DNA in the net-like structures.

The large majority of patients (70.4%) were referred due to glaucoma, ocular hypertension or suspected glaucoma.

Most of the patients had threshold strategies: FastPac 24-2 or 30-2 (88.9%), Full Threshold (0.7%), and 10-2 (0.5%).

In only 7 patients was short-wavelength automated perimetry (SWAP) performed.

The Swedish Interactive Testing Algorithm (SITA) was applied in 1.0% of cases.
