Aims: To evaluate the effect of zofenopril on oxidative stress markers and antioxidant enzyme activity in ocular tissues of rabbits with experimentally induced glaucoma. Materials and Methods: An experimental model of adrenaline-induced glaucoma (AIG) was developed in 2–2.5-year-old rabbits. Zofenopril, an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor, was administered orally as an aqueous suspens...

The authors have described the case of pathological biomineralization of ocular posterior chamber. Histological examination of affected eye shells revealed inflammation, oedema, dyscirculatory violations, and signs of dystrophic calcification. Structural-phase and chemical analyses of calcification have revealed that the biomineral consists of hydroxyapatite with relatively small crystallite size ...
