Diurnal intraocular pressure variations: an analysis of 690 diurnal curves.
Out of a total of 2272 diurnal curves (DC) of intraocular pressure (IOP) obtained from 1178 patients 690 first curves of the right eye of all patients were analysed. For each DC there were 4-6 IOP readings taken between 8 am and 6.30 pm of the same day. The patients' diagnosis, age, sex, type of IOP lowering medication, diabetes, and the calendar month of the year were recorded. In 40% of cases...
متن کاملDiurnal Fluctuation of Intraocular Pressure.
Diurnal fluctuation of intraocular pressure (IOP) is an important issue in managing glaucoma, yet its bases are not well understood. Delineating the genetic controllers and physiological pathways may open the door to potential therapeutic targets. Miller and associates have provided evidence for a GPR18 role in the diurnal regulation of IOP in mice and explored the related endocannabinoid pathw...
متن کاملEvaluation of the diurnal intraocular pressure fluctuations and blood pressure under dehydration due to fasting
Introduction: This study aimed to investigate the diurnal intraocular pressure fluctuations under dehydration conditions and the relationship between the intraocular pressure fluctuations and blood pressure. Methods: The intraocular pressures (IOP), body weights, as well as systolic and diastolic blood pressures (SBP, DBP) of 36 fasting healthy volunteers were recorded at 8:00 a.m. and 5:00 p.m...
متن کاملDiurnal intraocular pressure variation in pseudoexfoliation syndrome.
PURPOSE To describe and compare the diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) variation in patients with pseudoexfoliation syndrome (PXS) and normal subjects. METHODS The authors prospectively investigated 19 PXS patients (10 bilateral and 9 unilateral) and 25 age- and sex-matched normal subjects. One eye of each control subject and bilateral PXS patient was selected randomly, and pseudoexfoliative ...
