[Problem] To provide a fluorescent probe that detects calpain activity in cells at high sensitivity. [Solution] A compound represented by the following general formula (I) or a salt thereof.

Fluorescent probe for detecting calpain activity

In examining a patient for progression of glaucoma, a perimeter capable of appropriately assessing visual field progression in a short period of time, therefore lessening the physical burden of testing on the examinee.

Perimeter for testing for progression of Glaucoma

A composition for optic nerve cell protection, for preventing or treating glaucoma, for suppressing retinal ganglion cell death, or for delaying a progression of visual acuity loss of human contains at least one selected from the group consisting of products obtained by steaming and drying wheat, defatted wheat germ, defatted rice germ, defatted soybean, fermented grape, hesperidin, lactic acid bacterium, wild grape, Tamarind, Haskap, pomegranate seeds, licorice powder, and cinnamon powder.

Composition for optic nerve protection

An ophthalmic information processing system according to an embodiment includes a receiver and a processor. The receiver receives morphological data of an eye fundus of a subject. In addition, the receiver receives background data of the subject. The processor executes optic nerve head shape classification based on the morphological data and the background data received by the receiver.

Ophthalmic information processing system, ophthalmic information processing method, and recording medium

The present invention addresses the problem of providing an intraocular irrigating solution that allows the intraocular tissue to be sufficiently protected during ophthalmic surgery and further has high safety. The problem is solved by an intraocular irrigating solution containing at least one of active sulfur molecules of which examples include cysteine persulfide and glutathione persulfide.

Antioxidizing intraocular perfusion solution

A fundus analysis apparatus includes a storage, an area setting unit, and a morphological information generating unit. The storage is configured to store OCT information acquired by applying optical coherence tomography to the fundus of an eye. The area setting unit is configured to set a front area corresponding to a front surface of the lamina cribrosa and a rear area corresponding to a rear surface of the lamina cribrosa in the OCT information. The morphological information generating unit is configured to generate morphological information indicating the morphology of the lamina cribrosa based on at least the front area and the rear area.

Fundus analysis apparatus and fundus observation apparatus

An image display apparatus includes: a light source part generating a plurality of light rays corresponding to respective pixels in an image that changes over time; a projecting part defining an optical path from the light source part to an eye, and forming the image on a retina of the eye by projecting the generated light rays directly on the retina through the optical path; a splitting part splitting a plurality of reflection light rays from positions in a certain site of the eye on the optical path, the positions corresponding to the respective pixels; a detecting part detecting intensities of the reflection light rays that have been split; and a processing part obtaining parameters indicative of conditions of the site at the positions corresponding to the respective pixels, based on intensities of the generated light rays and the intensities of the reflection light rays, for the respective pixels.
