Tear and blood salusin-α, and -β, copeptin, and asprosin in patients with glaucoma and ocular hypertension

Fluids from patients with open-angle glaucoma and ocular hypertension showed lower salusin levels. Patients with ocular hypertension had higher levels of copeptin and asprosin, but not those with open-angle glaucoma (except for asprosin, whose levels showed a slight but remarkable increase in plasma in patients with open-angle glaucoma). The pathogenesis of ocular hypertension and open-angle glaucoma may be significantly impacted by these biomarkers.
