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 ...

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.

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

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 ...

Single Intraocular Pressure Measurements and Diurnal Intraocular Pressure Profiles

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2005
To evaluate the probability of a single intraocular pressure measurement to be the highest measurement within a diurnal intraocular pressure profile.Hospital-based clinical, observational study.The study included 3,025 day-and-night intraocular pressure profiles measured on 1,072 eyes of 547 Caucasian glaucoma patients or glaucoma suspects.

Effects of ketanserin on intraocular pressure

Cardiovascular Drugs and Therapy, 1990
There is evidence that some antihypertensive drugs, such as beta blockers, are effective in reducing intraocular pressure (IOP) and are commonly used in the medical treatment of glaucoma. The aim of this study was to evaluate the effects of the anti-serotonergic agent ketanserin, which has associated alpha 1-blocking properties, on IOP in normotensive ...
