Effect of the Intraocular Lens on Intraocular Pressure
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1976In the Miami Intraocular Lens Collaborative Study, 17 patients with glaucoma had a Copeland lens implanted at the time of cataract extraction. Seven additional glaucoma patients received a Binkhorst lens. Lens implantation did not adversely affect intraocular pressure or control of glaucoma, except in one patient who developed central retinal artery ...

Cataract surgery and intraocular pressure in glaucoma.
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2019PURPOSE OF REVIEW To review the current literature on the relationship between cataract extraction and intraocular pressure (IOP). RECENT FINDINGS Cataract extraction can be an effective IOP lowering treatment for open and closed angle glaucoma as well

The Genetics of Intraocular Pressure
Seminars in Ophthalmology, 2013Glaucoma is a leading cause of irreversible blindness. Intraocular pressure (IOP) is the only modifiable risk factor for glaucoma, yet there is little known about the molecular events that regulate IOP. Genetic and genomic studies have helped identify genes that influence IOP and could lead to the identification of biological pathways that serve as ...

Measuring intraocular pressure
Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2015Tonometry is undergoing a long-overdue renaissance. Goldmann applanation tonometry (GAT) is 50-year-old technology. Although GAT is considered a 'reference standard', it has many limitations and confounders. This review compares GAT to some of the newer technologies that have recently been commercialized or are in development.Dynamic contour tonometry ...

Hemodilution and Intraocular Pressure
Archives of Ophthalmology, 1965The water-drinking test is presently employed to aid in diagnosing glaucoma in suspicious or borderline cases. 1 Rarely necessary in patients with intraocular pressures below 15 mm Hg or above 30 mm Hg, the test is primarily indicated in the group with values of 20 to 25 mm Hg.

Pseudophakia and Intraocular Pressure
American Journal of Ophthalmology, 1984We studied the change in intraocular pressure in 373 consecutive eyes undergoing cataract extraction with intraocular lens implantation between Jan. 1, 1981, and May 31, 1982. There was a mean increase in intraocular pressure of 0.1 mm Hg following this surgery. This increase, however, was not statistically significant (P greater than .5).

Succinylcholine and Intraocular Pressure
Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1981Thirty-one patients (61 eyes) had a rise in intraocular pressure averaging 8.2 mm Hg following the use of succinylcholine as a muscle relaxant prior to general anesthesia. Just prior to the start of surgery (an average of 14 minutes following Anectine administration), the tension had returned to the control level. Ten patients (20 eyes) had pancuronium

Alcuronium and Intraocular Pressure
Anesthesia & Analgesia, 1983The effects of alcuronium on intraocular pressure (IOP) was studied in 20 patients undergoing elective ophthalmic surgery. IOP was measured with the Schiötz indentation tonometer before induction, after induction, and after tracheal intubation. Combined administration of a standardized sleep dose of thiopental (5 mg/kg) and alcuronium (0.25-0.30 mg/kg)

Intraocular pressure and glaucoma
Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2002Aqueous humor is a transparent fluid that fills the anterior and posterior chambers, and the pupil, of the eye. It is produced in the ciliary processes, and exits the eye through two major pathways--the iridocorneal (conventional) outflow, and the uveoscleral (unconventional) outflow. Equilibrium between production and drainage of aqueous humor enables

SMOKING AND INTRAOCULAR PRESSURE
Acta Ophthalmologica, 1975The intraocular pressure — as measured by Schiötz tonometer — was studied in 378 smokers, 151 ex‐smokers, and 495 non‐smokers. It was found that the three groups have practically the same distribution of intraocular pressure, and that the latter has no relationship to the smoking habit.
