Objective In this study,patients with idiopathic intracranial hypertension(IIH)were selected as a model for spaceflight-associated neuro-ocular syndrome(SANS)to conduct an eye movement manipulation intervention experiment.The aim was to explore whether eye movements have an effect on reducing the subarachnoid space around the optic nerve.Methods Twenty-three patients with IIH who met the inclusion criteria were subjected to history taking,collection of basic systemic data including age,height,weight,and blood pressure,and baseline data collection including intraocular pressure(prone)and transorbital ultrasound optic nerve sheath complex image acquisition.The subjects were then subjected to the eye movements intervention and IOP(prone)and transorbital ultrasound optic nerve sheath complex image acquisition were measured at 10 minutes,30 minutes and again 3 days after the intervention.Results The study enrolled 23 subjects with an average age of(29.58±11.25)years and a mean BMI of(28.56±6.3)kg/m2.The average cerebrospinal fluid pressure through lumbar puncture was(310.25±20.78)mmH2O.There were no significant changes in intraocular pressure at various time points before and after the eye movement exercises(P=1.000).Similarly,there were no significant changes in the diameter of the optic nerve at 3 mm and 5 mm posterior to the globe(P=1.000).However,the diameter of the optic nerve sheath at 5 mm posterior to the globe,as well as the width of the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve at 3 mm and 5 mm posterior to the globe,and the area of the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve from 3 mm to 5 mm posterior to the globe,all decreased significantly after performing eye movement exercises for 10 minutes and 30 minutes.These measures returned to baseline levels after three days of eye movement exercises,with significant differences observed across time points(P<0.05).Specifically,compared to baseline values,the diameter of the optic nerve sheath at 5 mm posterior to the globe decreased by 0.33 mm(95%CI:0.034-0.624,P=0.02)after performing 30 minutes of eye movement exercises.Additionally,the width of the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve at 3 mm and 5 mm posterior to the globe decreased by 0.2 mm(95%CI:?0.037-0.452,P=0.034)and 0.29 mm(95%CI:?0.265-0.344,P=0.01),respectively.Finally,the area of the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve from 3 mm to 5 mm posterior to the globe decreased by 0.21 mm2(95%CI:0.155-0.762,P=0.02).Conclusion This study initially proposes an eye movement manipulation method(eye movement exercise)that can reduce the subarachnoid space gap of the optic nerve posterior to the globe,including the direction,duration,rhythm,and frequency of eye movements.It was found that regular eye movements for a certain period of time can deform the optic nerve sheath,compress the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve posterior to the globe,and narrow its gap.As the duration and frequency of eye movement exercises increase,the width or area of the subarachnoid space of the optic nerve decreases more significantly.However,eye movement exercises cannot maintain the deformation of the optic nerve sheath for a long time,and after a certain period of time,the gap of the optic nerve sheath returns to baseline levels.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect of indocyanine green (ICG) on biological behavior and transdifferentiation of human lens epithelial cells (HLECs) and its mechanism.Methods:HLECs were divided into blank control group, 5% glucose solution (GS) group and 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group, which were treated with balanced salt solution, 5% GS and 0.5%, 1.5% and 2.5% ICG solutions for 3 minutes, respectively, and then were incubated in fresh medium for 24 hours.The apoptosis level of HLECs was detected by flow cytometry.The expression levels of apoptosis-related proteins, Bcl-2-associated X protein (Bax), B-cell lymphoma-2 (Bcl-2), caspase-3 and caspase-9 were detected by Western blot.Cell proliferation was detected via the cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay and 5-ethynyl-2'-deoxyuridine (EdU) incorporation assay.The migration ability of HLECs was detected by cell scratch assay.Cell migration and invasion were determined by Transwell assays.The expression levels transdifferentiation-related proteins, α-smooth muscle actin (α-SMA), nerve calcium adhesion protein (N-cadherin), fibronectin (FN) and vimentin were assessed by Western blot.Results:The apoptosis rates of blank control group, 5% GS group, 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group were (4.35±0.60)%, (4.63±0.19)%, (8.17±0.69)%, (13.90±0.33)% and (23.08±1.12)%, with a statistically significant difference in the overall comparison ( F=412.74, P<0.05). The apoptosis rate was significantly higher in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group (all at P<0.05). The relative expressions of caspase-3, caspase-9 and Bax proteins were significantly higher in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group, and the relative expression of Bcl-2 protein was lower in 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). The rate of EdU-positive cells was significantly lower in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG groups than in blank control group and 5% GS group (all at P<0.05). The survival rate of cells was significantly lower in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group (all at P<0.05). The migration rates of scratch cells were significantly lower in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). The number of migrating cells and the number of invading cells were significantly lower in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group (all at P<0.05). The relative expressions of α-SMA, N-cadherin and FN were significantly lower in 0.5% ICG group, 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group, and the relative expression of vimentin was lower in 1.5% ICG group and 2.5% ICG group than in blank control group and 5% GS group, and the differences were statistically significant (all at P<0.05). Conclusions:ICG can promote HLECs apoptosis and inhibit HLECs proliferation, migration, invasion and transdifferentiation in a concentration-dependent manner.
