Optic cup formation : A calcium - regulated process ( calmodulin / cell motility / organogenesis )
Invagination of the optic vesicle to form the optic cup is an important event in the formation of the eye in the early embryo. To obtain support for earlier conclusions that a contractile process is involved, calcium dependency ofoptic cup formation was tested. Heads were excised from chicken embryos at the optic vesicle stage of development (stage 13) and incubated in nutrient medium containin...
متن کاملOptic Disc and Optic Cup Segmentation for Glaucoma Detection
Glaucoma is an eye disease that leads to vision loss. The symptoms of the glaucoma occurs when disease is quite advance. Glaucoma is called ‘silent thief of sight’ so, that early detection of glaucoma is very essential. In existing approach three methods are used to detect glaucoma namely Assessment of raised intraocular pressure (IOP).Assessment of abnormal visual field. Assessment of damaged ...

متن کاملSuperpixel Classification Based Optic Cup Segmentation
In this paper, we propose a superpixel classification based optic cup segmentation for glaucoma detection. In the proposed method, each optic disc image is first over-segmented into superpixels. Then mean intensities, center surround statistics and the location features are extracted from each superpixel to classify it as cup or non-cup. The proposed method has been evaluated in one database of...
متن کاملBcl6a function is required during optic cup formation to prevent p53-dependent apoptosis and colobomata.
Mutations in BCOR (Bcl6 corepressor) are found in patients with oculo-facio-cardio-dental (OFCD) syndrome, a congenital disorder affecting visual system development, and loss-of-function studies in zebrafish and Xenopus demonstrate a role for Bcor during normal optic cup development in preventing colobomata. The mechanism whereby BCOR functions during eye development to prevent colobomata is no...
