Table 1.

This table summarizes the data from Figures 1 B, C and 2 and shows how the number and area of the lipofuscin-like granules and the auto-fluorescence thought secondary to the same was greater in lamina cribrosa cells derived from donors with glaucoma compared to lamina cribrosa cells from donors with no history of glaucoma

NLC Mean ± SD GLC Mean ± SD p-value ≤
Number of lipofuscin-like granules (× 10,000 per h.p.f) 2.0 ± 1.3 4.1 ± 1.9 0.002
Area of lipofuscin-like granules (mm2) 23.9 ± 0.3 46.8 ± 2.9 0.007
Autofluorescene (M.F.I.) 41.0 ± 3.9 83.62 ± 45.1 0.02

GLC = Glaucomatous lamina cribrosa, M.F.I Mean flourescene intensity, NLC = Normal lamina cribrosa, SD = Standard deviation.
