Corticosteroids and Intraocular Pressure

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1963
Introduction The finding of γ-globulin and plasma cells in the trabecular meshwork of glaucomatous eyes suggested an immunogenic component. 1,2 The present study was undertaken to determine, under controlled conditions, the effect of topical corticosteroids in the eye with primary open-angle glaucoma.

Succinylcholine and Intraocular Pressure

Journal of Pediatric Ophthalmology & Strabismus, 1981
Thirty-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, 1983
The 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)

Hemodilution and Intraocular Pressure

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1965
The 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.

Measuring intraocular pressure

Current Opinion in Ophthalmology, 2015
Tonometry 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 ...

Intraocular pressure and glaucoma

Veterinary Clinics of North America: Exotic Animal Practice, 2002
Aqueous 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, 1975
The 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.

Steroids and intraocular pressure

Journal of Steroid Biochemistry, 1976
Abstract The intraocular pressure is dependent upon the aqueous humour formation by the ciliary body and on the outflow through the trabecular meshwork localized in the anterior chamber angle of the eye. In the ciliary body epithelium the active sodium transport has been demonstrated and effects of mineralocorticoids has been suggested but not yet ...

Intraocular Pressure and Ophthalmodynamometry

Archives of Ophthalmology, 1965
Measurement of the retinal blood pressure by means of ophthalmodynamometry is a diagnostic aid in the evaluation of the carotid circulation. The procedure usually consists of exerting pressure on the eye with the ophthalmodynamometer and noting the reading on the calibrated plunger when the central retinal artery begins to pulsate (diastole) and the ...
