  • 4. Have been diagnosed with POAG (cohort 2).
  • 1. Are under 21 years of age.
  • 2. Have a condition which prevents adequate images from being obtained (e.g. unstable fixation or media opacity).
  • 3. Have visual correction outside of the range +4 diopters (D) to -8 D.
  • 4. Have a history of adverse reaction to mydriatic drops.
  • 5. Have a predisposition to (i.e., narrow iridocorneal angle) or any history of acute angle closure glaucoma (AACG).
  • 6. Have any health conditions that would contraindicate oxygen supplementation, including chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD), emphysema, asthma, or any other obstructive or restrictive lung disease (oxygen challenge participants only).
  • 7. Have a dependency on oxygen support or a baseline oxygen saturation \<95% (oxygen challenge participants only).
  • 8. Have tested positive for COVID-19 at initial enrollment or have acute or chronic photophobia as a result of contraction.
  • 9. Are working under the direct supervision of Dr. Hammer.
