Abstrakt: The article discusses the potential of reversing aging and improving health span in glaucoma patients by addressing ocular stiffness, retinal ganglion cell loss, and epigenetic reprogramming. It explores lifestyle modifications, anti-aging therapies, and challenges in epigenetic reprogramming to treat age-related retinal ganglion cell loss. The research suggests that lifestyle changes, such as yoga and meditation, may benefit glaucoma patients and impact cellular aging and overall health. Studies have shown associations between meditation, telomere length modulation, smoking, alcohol consumption, and biological age, emphasizing the importance of lifestyle choices in the aging process.
