Glaucoma, a leading cause of irreversible blindness, is characterised by progressive optic nerve damage, with elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) and extracellular matrix (ECM) remodelling in the lamina cribrosa (LC) contributing to its pathophysiology. While current treatments focus on IOP reduction, they fail to address the underlying fibrotic changes that perpetuate neurodegeneration. The Src proto-oncogene, a non-receptor tyrosine kinase, has emerged as a key regulator of cellular processes, including fibroblast activation, ECM deposition, and metabolism, making it a promising target for glaucoma therapy. Beyond its well-established roles in cancer and fibrosis, Src influences pathways critical to trabecular meshwork function, aqueous humour outflow, and neurodegeneration. However, the complexity of Src signalling networks remains a challenge, necessitating further investigation into the role of Src in glaucoma pathogenesis. This paper explores the therapeutic potential of Src inhibition to mitigate fibrotic remodelling and elevated IOP in glaucoma, offering a novel approach to halting disease progression.
