Phase coupling between eye and brain pulsations is bidirectional and modulated by the parasympathetic system – An fMREye study

Acta Ophthalmologica, EarlyView.
Abstract Purpose Physiological pulsations driven by cardiac, respiratory, and vasomotor activity are essential for solute transport within perivascular and perineural cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) pathways that support brain and eye clearance systems. Previous studies have shown that parasympathetic blockade significantly reduces ocular pulsation power and
