The Translaminar Autonomous System (TAS) model is one of a kind humanized model to study pressure inside the posterior segment (intraocular) of the eye and the area surrounding the optic nerve (intracranial) to generate a translaminar pressure gradient similar to normal and pathological conditions. 

This biologically relevant patented model is utilized to investigate disease mechanisms, identify biomarkers, and evaluate novel interventions for ocular pressure-related neurodegeneration. The TAS system has also been applied by NASA to study consequences of space flight missions on astronaut eyes. The TAS system is designed to fit human donor posterior segment (back of the eye) postmortem tissues and has been validated and featured in numerous peer reviewed publications.
