N
• mice exhibit normal retinal structure, corneal thickness, retinal ganglion cell axon pathfinding and optic nerve diameter
• microvessel branching in the middle levels is increased compared to in wild-type mice
• however, branching at the surface of the retina is largely normal
• increased proliferation in the cornea
