Subject Optic Neuropathy
Description Recent work has indicated that optic neuropathies can cause death of melanopsin-expressing photosensitive retinal ganglion cells (pRGCs), which entrain mammalian circadian rhythms and align the sleep-wake cycle. It remains unknown whether optic neuropathies cause measurable disruption of sleep or circadian rhythms in humans. We performed a cross-sectional study to evaluate the impact of bilateral optic neuropathies, on subjective and objective measures of sleep quality and circadian rhythms.
