This thesis provides direct experimental evidence in a rodent model of glaucoma that chronic hypertension impairs the capacity of the ocular blood vessels to cope with changes in blood pressure. This negates any benefit gained from having higher blood perfusion into the eye. These data provide an explanation for why chronic hypertension is a risk factor for glaucoma
