Intraocular pressure variability in patients who reached target intraocular pressure.
AIM To assess the intraocular pressure (IOP) variability in patients with primary open angle glaucoma (POAG) under clinical treatment who reached an established target pressure based on isolated office readings. METHODS Retrospective analysis of 65 eyes from 65 POAG patients under clinical therapy who submitted to modified diurnal tension curve (mDTC) (measurements at every 3 hours between 8 ...
متن کاملDetermination 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 کاملIntraocular pressure
The tissue pressure of the intraocular contents is called the intraocular pressure (IOP). The normal range for IOP is 10–20 mm Hg and is maintained at this level throughout life and between the sexes, though there is some diurnal and seasonal variation. Control of IOP within the correct physiological range is necessary to maintain the anatomical conditions necessary for optimal refraction and t...
متن کاملEffect of Calcium Channel Blockers on Intraocular Pressure in Rabbits
The objective of the study was to evaluate the antiglaucoma effect of calcium channel blockers diltiazem and verapamil. Albino rabbits were used and chronic glaucoma was induced in them using freshly prepared 150 units of alphachymotrypsin. 0.1 mL of drug solution was administered topically into the left eye whereas the right served as control. The pressure recording was carried out at 15, 30, ...
متن کاملRelationship Between Nocturnal Intraocular Pressure Elevation and Diurnal Intraocular Pressure Level in Normal-Tension Glaucoma Patients.
PURPOSE We studied the relationship between nocturnal habitual position IOP elevation and diurnal IOP level in normal-tension glaucoma (NTG) patients. METHODS A total of 70 young NTG patients with a low diurnal IOP level (mean diurnal seated IOP < 15.0 mm Hg; low IOP group) and 79 age-, axial length-, and disease severity-matched NTG patients with a high diurnal IOP level (mean diurnal seated...
