Intraocular pressure fluctuation: Is it important? [PDF]

Journal of Ophthalmic and Vision Research, 2018
Elevated intraocular pressure (IOP) is a major risk factor for the development and progression of glaucoma. Previous prospective, randomized, long-term studies have demonstrated the strength of IOP reduction in slowing the progression of disease. It is well known that IOP is not a fixed value but fluctuates considerably over time.

Intraocular pressure in keratoconus [PDF]

Acta Ophthalmologica, 2011
Abstract.Purpose:  This study aimed to investigate intraocular pressure (IOP) measurements taken using the dynamic contour tonometer (DCT) and the non‐contact tonometer (NCT) in subjects with keratoconus.Methods:  Intraocular pressure was measured in 20 keratoconus subjects and 20 age‐matched control subjects using the DCT and NCT instruments.

Pregnancy and intraocular pressure

Indian Journal of Ophthalmology, 2014
Dear Editor, The report on “pregnancy and intraocular pressure (IOP)” is very interesting.[1] Saylik and Saylik concluded that “increased ocular hypotensive effect of twin pregnancies is most likely related to the presence of higher levels of hormones, particularly estrogen, progesterone and relaxin compared with singleton pregnancies.”[1] In fact ...

Canaloplasty in the Treatment of Open-Angle Glaucoma: A Review of Patient Selection and Outcomes. [PDF]

, 2018
Canaloplasty is a relatively new non-penetrating surgery for the reduction of intraocular pressure in patients affected by glaucoma. The technique uses a microcatheter to perform a 360 º cannulation of Schlemm's canal and leaves in place a tension suture

Systems genetics identifies a role for Cacna2d1 regulation in elevated intraocular pressure and glaucoma susceptibility [PDF]

, 2017
Glaucoma is a multi-factorial blinding disease in which genetic factors play an important role. Elevated intraocular pressure is a highly heritable risk factor for primary open angle glaucoma and currently the only target for glaucoma therapy.

Intraocular Pressure Elevation in the Contralateral Untreated Eye Following Selective Laser Trabeculoplasty in Rabbit Eyes [PDF]

, 2015
Our study aimed at evaluating if a single session of unilateral selective laser trabeculoplasty would affect the intraocular pressure of the fellow untreated eye in rabbits. Eleven rabbits were involved.
