Determination of Central Venous Pressure from Intraocular Pressure
Background: In many clinical situations, knowledge of central venous pressure (CVP) is important. Measurement of CVP is not always possible. Objective: To determine if intraocular pressure (IOP) can be used as an estimate for CVP. Methods: IOP and CVP were measured concurrently in 30 candidates of coronary artery bypass graft surgery. Those with carotid artery or jugular venous diseases as we...
متن کاملClinical Options for the Reduction of Elevated Intraocular Pressure
Elevated IOP in clinical practice is usually seen in glaucoma or ocular hypertension. Glaucoma affects 60 million people worldwide and 8.4 million are bilaterally blind from this chronic disease.1 Options for reducing IOP rely on pharmacological agents, laser treatments and surgery which may be penetrating or non-penetrating. The last twenty years has seen significant changes in all of these st...
متن کاملEffects of elevated intraocular pressure on mouse retinal ganglion cells
We developed and characterized a mouse model of elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) to investigate the underlying cellular and genetic mechanisms of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death. IOP was unilaterally increased in C57BL/6J mice by photocoagulation of the episcleral and limbal veins. IOP was measured using an indentation tonometer. RGC survival was measured by retrograde labeling using DiI a...
متن کاملProteomic analysis of elevated intraocular pressure with retinal detachment
PURPOSE To report a case of elevated intraocular pressure with retinal detachment. OBSERVATIONS Liquid chromatography and tandem mass spectrometry was performed on the patient aqueous biopsy. Protein levels were analyzed with 1-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) and unbiased clustering. High levels of rod outer segment proteins were not detected, suggesting that this was not a case of Schwartz-...
متن کاملMetabolic Syndrome as a Risk Factor for Elevated Intraocular Pressure
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to investigate the association between intraocular pressure and metabolic syndrome by comparing central corneal thicknesses. METHODS One hundred sixty-two subjects were enrolled in this cross-sectional study, with 89 subjects in a metabolic syndrome group and 73 subjects in a control group. Ophthalmological examinations, including intraocular pressure and c...
