Reply to Wostyn, P.; Nedergaard, M. Ocular Glymphatic Dysfunction as a Potential Link Between Obstructive Sleep Apnea and Retinal Structural Changes. Comment on “Pusic Sesar et al. Multimodal Assessment of Ocular Parameters in Patients with Severe Obstructive Sleep Apnea with Emphasis on Retinal Structural Changes. Life 2025, 15, 1307”

Key Points

• Ocular glymphatic dysfunction may link obstructive sleep apnea to retinal structural changes, indicating a significant connection.
• The commentary builds upon a study assessing ocular parameters in patients affected by obstructive sleep apnea.
• The analysis integrates insights from recent findings, focusing on the relationship between ocular health and sleep disorders.
• Further research is essential to validate the potential mechanisms linking sleep apnea with retinal changes.
