Oxidative stress is an important pathomechanism found in numerous ocular degenerative
diseases. To provide a better understanding of the mechanism and treatment of
oxidant/antioxidant imbalance-induced ocular diseases, this article summarizes and
provides updates on the relevant research. We review the oxidative damage (eg, lipid
peroxidation, DNA lesions, autophagy, and apoptosis) that occurs in different areas of the
eye (eg, cornea, anterior chamber, lens, retina, and optic nerve). We then introduce the …
Oxidative stress is an important pathomechanism found in numerous ocular degenerative diseases. To provide a better understanding of the mechanism and treatment of oxidant/antioxidant imbalance-induced ocular diseases, this article summarizes and provides updates on the relevant research. We review the oxidative damage (e.g., lipid peroxidation, DNA lesions, autophagy, and apoptosis) that occurs in different areas of the eye (e.g., cornea, anterior chamber, lens, retina, and optic nerve). We then introduce the antioxidant mechanisms present in the eye, as well as the ocular diseases that occur as a result of antioxidant imbalances (e.g., keratoconus, cataracts, age-related macular degeneration, and glaucoma), the relevant antioxidant biomarkers, and the potential of predictive diagnostics. Finally, we discuss natural antioxidant therapies for oxidative stress-related ocular diseases.
