Diurnal 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 کاملDiurnal Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation in Eyes with Angle-closure
PURPOSE To investigate diurnal intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuation in eyes with angle-closure. MATERIALS AND METHODS Seventy-seven eyes of 77 newly diagnosed patients with angle closure [33 subjects with primary angle-closure suspects (PACS), 23 subjects with primary angle-closure (PAC), and 21 subjects with primary angle-closure glau-coma (PACG)] were enrolled after laser peripheral irido...
متن کاملExperimental closed system surgical procedures and intraocular pressure fluctuation.
PURPOSE To determine the behavior of intraocular pressure and its relationship with infusion pressure in vitrectomy, phacofragmentation and phacoemulsification surgeries in rabbits. METHODS Intraocular pressure fluctuation was measured in 24 eyes of 12 rabbits submitted to vitrectomy, phacofragmentation and phacoemulsification procedures (eight eyes per group). The procedures were divided acc...
متن کاملIntraocular Pressure: Does it Measure Up?
The relationship between intraocular pressure (IOP) and glaucoma is complex and not fully understood. We question the validity of several claims relating to the IOP-glaucoma relationship: (1) that 12 mm Hg is an important target in IOP control; (2) that IOP variability is an important risk factor for glaucoma progression; and (3) that every millimeter of mercury of IOP lowering reduces the risk...
متن کاملCorrelation between Intraocular Pressure Fluctuation with Postural Change and Postoperative Intraocular Pressure in Relation to the Time Course after Trabeculectomy
Background. To investigate the correlation between intraocular pressure (IOP) fluctuation with postural change and IOP in relation to the time course after trabeculectomy. Methods. A total of 29 patients who had previously undergone primary trabeculectomy with mitomycin C were examined. IOP was obtained at 1, 2, 3, 6, and 12 months and then every 6 months postoperatively. Results. The postural ...
