Melatonin and the control of intraocular pressure [PDF]

Progress in Retinal and Eye Research, 2020
Melatonin is not only synthesized by the pineal gland but by several ocular structures. This natural indoleamine is of great importance for regulating several eye processes, among which pressure homeostasis is included. Glaucoma, the most prevalent eye disease, also known as the silent thief of vision, is a multifactorial pathology that is associated ...

Atracurium and intraocular pressure. [PDF]

British Journal of Ophthalmology, 1985
The effect of atracurium on intraocular pressure was studied by comparing it with pancuronium in a randomised controlled trial. The intraocular pressure was measured in patients undergoing cataract surgery before administration of the muscle relaxant, at 1, 3, and 5 minutes after its administration, and at 1 minute after tracheal intubation. Atracurium

EFFECTS OF ATRACURIUM ON INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE

British Journal of Anaesthesia, 1984
The effects of atracurium on intraocular pressure (IOP) were compared with those of pancuronium in 20 patients less than 45 years-of-age requiring surgery for trauma of one eye. After a standard premedication and the application of topical analgesia to the upper airway, anaesthesia was induced with thiopentone i.v. and the trachea was intubated without

Selective laser trabeculoplasty as adjunctive treatment in pseudoexfoliative glaucoma patients [PDF]

Srpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo, 2022
Introduction/Objective. Pseudoexfoliation syndrome is characterized by abnormal production and accumulation of fibrillar, white-gray, “dandruff-like” material in almost all ocular structures. The aim of this study was to examine effect of selective laser

Intelligent wireless theranostic contact lens for electrical sensing and regulation of intraocular pressure

Nature Communications, 2022
Engineering wearable devices that can wirelessly track intraocular pressure and offer feedback-medicine administrations are highly desirable for glaucoma treatments, yet remain challenging due to issues of limited sizes, wireless operations, and wireless

Wireless theranostic smart contact lens for monitoring and control of intraocular pressure in glaucoma

Nature Communications, 2022
Glaucoma is one of the irreversible ocular diseases that can cause vision loss in some serious cases. Although Triggerfish has been commercialized for monitoring intraocular pressure in glaucoma, there is no smart contact lens to monitor intraocular ...

Smart soft contact lenses for continuous 24-hour monitoring of intraocular pressure in glaucoma care

Nature Communications, 2022
Continuous monitoring of intraocular pressure, particularly during sleep, remains a grand challenge in glaucoma care. Here we introduce a class of smart soft contact lenses, enabling the continuous 24-hour monitoring of intraocular pressure, even during ...
