An examination of the hypothesis that intraocular pressure elevation episodes can have prognostic significance in glaucoma suspects

open access: yesJournal of Optometry, 2015
The efficacy of intraocular pressure reduction in retarding the progression of glaucoma has been demonstrated. This review examines the potential for prognostic advantage for glaucoma suspects in reducing their optic nerve head exposure to elevated ...

How to Approach the Patients with High Intraocular Pressure?

open access: yesBoğaziçi Tıp Dergisi, 2019
INTRODUCTION[|]The aim of this study is to indicate that it is not enough to only measure the intraocular pressure in order to be able to diagnose glaucoma in patients with high intraocular pressure.

Reduction of intraocular pressure and glaucoma progression: results from the Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial.

open access: yesA M A Archives of Ophthalmology, 2002
OBJECTIVE To provide the results of the Early Manifest Glaucoma Trial, which compared the effect of immediately lowering the intraocular pressure (IOP), vs no treatment or later treatment, on the progression of newly detected open-angle glaucoma ...

Intraocular pressure and central corneal thickness in a healthy student population [PDF]

open access: yesSrpski Arhiv za Celokupno Lekarstvo
Introduction/Objective. Intraocular pressure is an important parameter of eye health, especially when glaucoma is suspected. So far, few studies have been published that aimed to determine the average value of intraocular pressure and central corneal ...

Genome-wide analyses identify 68 new loci associated with intraocular pressure and improve risk prediction for primary open-angle glaucoma

open access: yesNature Genetics, 2018
Glaucoma is the leading cause of irreversible blindness globally1. Despite its gravity, the disease is frequently undiagnosed in the community2. Raised intraocular pressure (IOP) is the most important risk factor for primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG)3,4.

Intraocular pressure in very low birth weight preterm infants and its association with postconceptional age

open access: yesClinics, 2012
OBJECTIVE: To evaluate intraocular pressure in very low birth weight preterm infants and correlate it with postconceptional age. METHODS: The intraocular pressure in a prospective cohort of very low birth weight premature infants (defined as a birth ...

Simultaneous tensile and shear measurement of the human cornea in vivo using S0- and A0-wave optical coherence elastography [PDF]

open access: yesarXiv, 2023
Understanding corneal stiffness is valuable for improving refractive surgery, detecting corneal abnormalities, and assessing intraocular pressure. However, accurately measuring the elastic properties, particularly the tensile and shear moduli that govern mechanical deformation, has been challenging.

Intraocular pressure in postmenopausal Nigerian women with and without systemic hypertension

open access: yesAfrican Vision and Eye Health, 2011
Background: Mean intraocular pressure (IOP) in postmenopausal women has been reported higher than that in menstruating women. Also, intraocular pressure is said to be positively correlated with systemic blood pressure.

Personalizing Intraocular Pressure

open access: yesAsia-Pacific Journal of Ophthalmology, 2016
Determining target intraocular pressure (IOP) in glaucoma patients is multifaceted, requiring attention to many different factors such as glaucoma type, severity of disease, age, race, family history, corneal thickness and hysteresis, and initial IOP.
