Carbon

Carbon is a chemical element; it has symbol C and atomic number 6.

Glaucoma

Glaucoma is a group of eye diseases that lead to damage of the optic nerve, which transmits visual information from the eye to the brain.

Glucose

Glucose is a sugar with the molecular formula.

Ocular hypertension

Ocular hypertension is the presence of elevated fluid pressure inside the eye (intraocular pressure), usually with no optic nerve damage or visual field loss.

Oxygen

Oxygen is a chemical element; it has symbol O and atomic number 8.

Prostaglandin

Prostaglandins (PG) are a group of physiologically active lipid compounds called eicosanoids that have diverse hormone-like effects in animals. Oxaprostaglandin and Prostaglandin are Prostaglandins.

Red blood cell

Red blood cells (RBCs), referred to as erythrocytes (with -cyte translated as 'cell' in modern usage) in academia and medical publishing, also known as red cells, erythroid cells, and rarely haematids, are the most common type of blood cell and the vertebrate's principal means of delivering oxygen to the body tissues—via blood flow through the circulatory system.
