Abstract
Primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG) is no longer considered an isolated eye pressure-dependent optic neuropathy, but a neurodegenerative disease in which oxidative stress and neuroinflammation are prominent. These processes may be exacerbated by additional systemic diseases. The most common are arterial hypertension, dyslipidemia, and diabetes mellitus. Using diabetes mellitus as an example, it will be shown how far-reaching the influence of such a systemic disease can be on both the functional and the structural diagnostic methods for POAG. This knowledge is essential, since these interferences can lead to misinterpretations of POAG, which can also affect therapeutic decisions.

Abstract
Color arrangement tests such as the D15 test can be used to detect congenital and acquired color vision defects. However, the D15 test cannot be used as the only test to assess color vision because of its relatively low sensitivity in less severe cases of color vision deficiency. In this study, we attempted to determine D15 cap arrangements for red/green anomalous trichromats with varying degrees of severity of color vision deficiency. The color coordinates of D15 test caps corresponding to a particular type and severity of color vision deficiency were determined using the model proposed by Yaguchi et al. [J. Opt. Soc. Am. A35, B278 (2018)JOAOD60740-323210.1364/JOSAA.35.00B278]. The arrangement of the color caps was modeled by assuming that individuals with color vision deficiency would arrange the D15 test caps judging by color differences perceived by them. The proposed simulation correctly predicts the increase in severity of color vision deficiency with spectral reduction between the L- and M-cone photopigments. The type of color vision deficiency is correctly predicted with few exceptions in protanomalous trichromats.

Abstract
Purpose We explored whether thyroid-associated ophthalmopathy (TAO) patients without clinical signs of dysthyroid optic neuropathy (DON) would have a selective deficit mediated by S-cone. Methods Thirty-two TAO patients without clinical signs of DON (non-DON, 42.03 ± 9.59 years old) and 27 healthy controls (41.46 ± 6.72 years old) participated in this prospective, cross-sectional study. All observers were tested psychophysically after passing color screening tests and a comprehensive ocular examination. Isolated L-, M-, and S-cone contrast thresholds were measured at 0.5 cyc/deg using Gabor patches. We calculated the area under the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve to quantify the ability of chromatic contrast sensitivity to detect the early visual function changes in non-DON patients. Results S-cone contrast sensitivity in non-DON patients was found to be lower than that of healthy controls (P < 0.001), whereas the sensitivities to L- and M-cone Gabor patches were similar between these two groups (P = 0.297, 0.666, respectively). Our analysis of the ROC curve revealed that the sensitivity to S-cone had the highest index to discriminate non-DON patients from healthy controls (AUC = 0.846, P < 0.001). The deficit of S-cone was significantly correlated with muscle index in non-DON patients (R = 0.576, P = 0.001). Conclusion There is a selective S-cone deficit in the early stage of TAO. S-cone contrast sensitivity could serve as a sensitive measure of visual impairments associated with early DON in patients with TAO.

Effects of acute high intraocular pressure on red-green and blue-yellow cortical color responses in non-human primates. Neuroimage Clin 2022; 35:103092.

Abstract
Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness worldwide, and intraocular pressure (IOP) is an established and modifiable risk factor for both chronic and acute glaucoma. The relationship between color vision deficits and chronic glaucoma has been described previously. However, the effects of acute glaucoma or acute primary angle closure, which has high prevalence in China, on color vision remains unclear. To address the above question, red-green or blue-yellow color responses in V1, V2, and V4 of seven rhesus macaques were monitored using intrinsic-signal optical imaging while monocular anterior chamber perfusions were performed to reversibly elevate IOP acutely over a clinically observed range of 30 to 90 mmHg. We found that the cortical population responses to both red-green and blue-yellow grating stimuli, systematically decreased as IOP increased from 30 to 90 mmHg. Although a similar decrement in magnitude was noted in V1, V2, and V4, blue-yellow responses were consistently more impaired than red-green responses at all levels of acute IOP elevation and in all monitored visual areas. This physiological study in non-human primates demonstrates that acute IOP elevations substantially depress the ability of the visual cortex to register color information. This effect is more severe for blue-yellow responses than for red-green responses, suggesting selective impairment of the koniocellular pathways compared with the parvocellular pathways. Together, we infer that blue-yellow color vision might be the most vulnerable visual function in acute glaucoma patients.
