What Happens to Intraocular Pressure at High Altitude?

open access: yesInvestigative Opthalmology & Visual Science, 2007
To investigate changes of intraocular pressure on ascent to high altitude.The Apex 2 medical research expedition provided the opportunity to measure intraocular pressure (IOP) and central corneal thickness (CCT) in 76 healthy lowlanders. They all arrived in La Paz, Bolivia (altitude, 3700 m), where they spent 4 days before being driven more than 2 ...

An examination of the hypothesis that intraocular pressure elevation episodes can have prognostic significance in glaucoma suspects

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2015
The efficacy of intraocular pressure reduction in retarding the progression of glaucoma has been demonstrated. This review examines the potential for prognostic advantage for glaucoma suspects in reducing their optic nerve head exposure to elevated ...

Intraocular Pressures During High-Flux Hemodialysis

open access: yesRenal Failure, 1990
The intraocular pressures of 16 patients with end stage renal failure treated with high-flux dialysis were measured before and during a high-flux dialysis treatment. The patients were selected so as not to have glaucoma or history of glaucoma.

What is the Real Cause of Glaucoma? [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Medical Physics, 2010
Introduction: The term glaucoma refers to a group of diseases that have a characteristic optic neuropathy with associated visual field loss in common. Intraocular pressure has been considered to be the only causal factor for glaucoma and the only factor ...

Intraocular pressure in postmenopausal Nigerian women with and without systemic hypertension

open access: yesAfrican Vision and Eye Health, 2011
Background: Mean intraocular pressure (IOP) in postmenopausal women has been reported higher than that in menstruating women. Also, intraocular pressure is said to be positively correlated with systemic blood pressure.

Rational Design of Microfluidic Glaucoma Stent

open access: yesMicromachines, 2022
Glaucoma is a common, irreparable eye disease associated with high intraocular pressure. One treatment option is implantation of a stent to lower the intraocular pressure. A systematic approach to develop a microchannel stent meshwork that drains aqueous
