So, I have this topic to discuss and I've been having trouble finding any info about it online or in my yanoff ophtho text. Does anybody know of any good online sources that would describe how the optic nerve and retinal ganglion cells come out of the retina and optic nerve and how it changes in glaucoma? Supposedly it's very stereoscopic or something.

I suggest looking at Dr. Alward's text:

There's a good discussion about the nerve fiber layer organization in the retina and optic nerve.
