Dexamethasone-induced OHT in mice mimics hallmarks of human SIG within 4 weeks of DEX treatment. The correlation between reduced C and newly formed ECM motivates further study using DEX-treated mice to investigate the pathogenesis of conventional outflow obstruction in glaucoma.

Accumulations of ECM in the treated eyes resembled morphologic changes in human eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma and steroid-induced glaucoma. This animal model, therefore, provides a good tool in which to further study the pathogenesis of TM changes in glaucoma.
